LEADING AUTHORITY ON GLOBAL WEALTHY RELEASES HURUN IMMIGRANT BILLIONAIRES LIST 2017, PROUDLY PRESENTED BY CHINA-BASED IMMIGRATION

BRAND WAILIAN GROUP

(21 March 2017, Beijing, China) Hurun Report and Wailian Group today released the Hurun Immigrant Billionaires List 2017, a ranking of the immigrant billionaires from around the world. The Hurun team of researchers extensively went through the Hurun Global Rich List 2017, pulling out all first generation immigrants, those who reside today in a country different to where they were born and/or brought up. This is the first year of the list and is a sublist of the Hurun Global Rich List 2017 series, released on 7 March. Hoogewerf said, “We believe this to be the first serious attempt to track the immigration status of the world’s billionaires.”

The Hurun Immigrant Billionaires List 2017 found 300 billionaires in 44, who migrated from 67 countries. They had an average wealth of US$3.8bn, 6% higher than the average of the Hurun Global Rich List 2017, and an average age of 65 years, one higher than the global list. 30 of the 300 are women, led by Charlene Carvalho, born in the Netherlands and living in London. The most successful self-made female billionaire is ‘Chinese Restaurant Queen’ Peggy Cherng, born in Myanmar, now living in California. 130 have listed companies, with the USA the preferred destination for listing.

Rupert Hoogewerf, Chairman and Chief Researcher of Hurun Report, said, “Immigration is polarising nations today, playing a key part in Brexit, Trump’s election and the current Dutch, French and German elections. This report is designed to give an insight into how immigrants have contributed to global wealth creation, creating new jobs and tax revenues in the countries they have immigrated to.”

Hoogewerf said, “We are delighted to be putting this report out with Wailian Group, a leading a leading investment immigration brand from China, specializing in overseas immigration, investment, and education.”

Preferred destinations and Where they come from

USA is the preferred destination for immigrants with 73 billionaires followed by Switzerland (42) and UK (39). Hoogewerf said, “Half the billionaires residing in Switzerland, UK, Singapore, UAE, Israel and Monaco are immigrants.”

300 billionaires migrated to 44 countries, including the Channel Islands from 67 countries.

Hoogewerf said, “It is difficult sometimes to pinpoint where billionaires live, since they are often ‘global citizens’, splitting their time between multiple residences. Tax plays an important part of the country of choice for billionaires, especially those from high tax regimes.”
