There’s wealth, and then there’s investable wealth. Liquid and transferable, investable wealth is easily deployed into new assets—like luxury real estate.

There are 16 million people worldwide who hold at least US$1M each in investable wealth, according to “Investable Assets of the Global Wealthy,” a report published on December 9, 2025 by research firm Altrata. Collectively these assets total US$67.3TN.

The global footprint of the Sotheby’s International Realty® brand closely mirrors this wealth distribution, with a strong presence of affiliated offices and agents in markets where investable wealth is most concentrated.

Take North America, where 7.4 million people have at least US$1M ready to invest, totalling US$29.3TN, according to Altrata. Most of this—US$26.2TN—is held in the U.S. by 6.8 million individuals. North America is also home to 745 Sotheby’s International Realty affiliated offices and 22,508 affiliated sales associates.

In Asia, US$8.1TN is held by 4.2 million people, and in Europe, 3.1 million people hold US$13.8TN. Japan—which ranks third for total investable wealth after the U.S. and China–is home to 10 Sotheby’s International Realty affiliated offices and 160 affiliated sales associates, while there are 182 affiliated offices and 1,237 affiliated associates in Europe.
