Analyst Opinion

The Financial Advisory market in Bahrain is experiencing significant growth and development, driven by various factors such as customer preferences, trends in the market, local special circumstances, and underlying macroeconomic factors. Customer preferences in Bahrain are shifting towards seeking professional financial advice and guidance.

As the economy continues to grow and individuals accumulate wealth, there is a greater need for expert advice to manage and invest their assets effectively. Additionally, the increasing complexity of financial products and investment options has made it more challenging for individuals to make informed decisions on their own. As a result, there is a growing demand for financial advisors who can provide personalized and tailored solutions to meet the unique needs and goals of each client.

Trends in the market are also contributing to the growth of the Financial Advisory sector in Bahrain. One significant trend is the rise of digital platforms and robo-advisors. These platforms leverage technology and algorithms to provide automated and low-cost investment advice to clients.

This trend has gained traction in Bahrain as it offers convenience, accessibility, and cost-effectiveness, especially for younger investors who are comfortable with technology and prefer a more hands-off approach to managing their finances. Another trend in the market is the increasing focus on sustainable and socially responsible investing. Investors in Bahrain are becoming more conscious of the impact their investments have on the environment and society as a whole.

They are seeking financial advisors who can help them align their investment strategies with their values and contribute to positive change. This trend presents an opportunity for financial advisors to specialize in sustainable investing and offer innovative solutions to meet the evolving needs of their clients. Local special circumstances in Bahrain also play a role in the development of the Financial Advisory market.

The country's strategic location in the Gulf region, coupled with its strong financial services sector, makes it an attractive destination for both local and international investors. Bahrain's regulatory framework and business-friendly environment further support the growth of the Financial Advisory sector by providing a conducive ecosystem for financial advisors to operate and thrive. Underlying macroeconomic factors, such as economic growth, population demographics, and government initiatives, are driving the development of the Financial Advisory market in Bahrain.

The country's robust economic growth and diversification efforts have resulted in increased wealth creation and a growing middle class. This, in turn, has created a larger pool of potential clients for financial advisors. Additionally, Bahrain's young and tech-savvy population presents an opportunity for financial advisors to leverage digital platforms and technology to reach and engage with a wider audience.

Furthermore, the government's focus on promoting the financial services sector and attracting foreign investment has created a favorable business environment for financial advisors to operate and expand their services. In conclusion, the Financial Advisory market in Bahrain is experiencing growth and development due to changing customer preferences, emerging trends in the market, local special circumstances, and underlying macroeconomic factors. Financial advisors in Bahrain have the opportunity to capitalize on these factors by providing personalized and tailored solutions, leveraging digital platforms, and specializing in sustainable investing to meet the evolving needs of their clients.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. The figures are based on gross revenues, assets under management, and user & advisor data of relevant services and products offered within the Wealth Management market.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a combined top-down and bottom-up approach, building on a specific rationale for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of key players, industry reports, third-party reports, publicly available databases, and survey results from primary research activities (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as: GDP, gross national income (GNI), consumer spending, total investment (% of GDP), high income (% of population), and number of high-net-worth individuals (HNWI). This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.

Additional notes:

The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. In some cases, the data is updated on an ad hoc basis (e.g., when new, relevant data has been released or significant changes within the market have an impact on the projected development).
