A report released this week indicates that Kenya has added 180 people to the class of dollar millionaires. According to data provided by the Wealth-X for the Knight Frank Wealth Report 2018, the number of people with US$5 million (approx. Ksh 500 million) in net assets rose to 1,290 in 2017, a 16.2% increase from 1,110 in 2016.

Out of the 1,290 individuals, 90 are worth US$50 million ( Ksh 5 billion) or more. However, the number of those worth US$500 million (Ksh 50 billion) or more is less than 10. The report adds that Kenya’s dollar millionaires worth at least US$5 million is expected to grow by 60.5% over the next five years to 2,070 in 2022.
