    WEALTH is moving around the world at an unprecedented rate, and three of Asia’s prominent wealth hubs are actively vying for a slice of this pie.

    Migration consultancy Henley & Partners expects 128,000 millionaires to relocate in 2024, eclipsing the previous record of 120,000 in 2023.

    “This year is shaping up to be a watershed moment in the global migration of wealth,” said Dominic Volek, its group head of private clients.
