Wealth-X Holds Commemorative Event to Mark Launch of London Office

LONDON, Feb. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Wealth-X, the global UHNW prospecting, intelligence, and wealth due diligence firm has recently opened in London, to lead the company's expansion into the United Kingdom and beyond. A commemorative event followed by a private briefing was hosted at the newly-opened Mayfair office to celebrate the expansion. During the event, Mr. Rambus met with esteemed and selected members of the private banking, education, not-for-profit and luxury sectors as well as the media. The event marked an important milestone day for Wealth-X, formalizing a hub in a location where Wealth-X already serves many clients.

The office is Wealth-X's second in Europe, following after Lugano, Switzerland. London, host city for the Olympic Games this year, is also home to the largest population of ultra high net worth (UHNW) individuals among European cities, reports Wealth-X. The UK capital leads the European UHNWI numbers with 5,955 individuals - approximately 3 percent of the total UHNW population globally, leaving behind Paris with 2,850, and Zurich with 1,775.

"There are 5,955 ultra wealthy in London, far more than any other cities in Europe. Clearly there is a tremendous opportunity in London alone. Furthermore, the challenging economic environment in Europe is spurring banks, not-for-profits and luxury brands to find new ways to connect with the ultra wealthy because it's the super rich that are the greatest business opportunities,'' said Mykolas Rambus, CEO of Wealth-X.
