The Future Custodians: Women and the Transfer of Wealth in the GCC
Around the world, wealth is moving from one generation to the next at an unprecedented scale. Over the coming decades, trillions of dollars are expected to change hands globally in what experts call the “great wealth transfer”.
What makes this transfer remarkable is not just its scale, but the growing share expected to be inherited by women. Longer life expectancy, evolving family structures, and demographic trends mean that women will increasingly become the custodians of family wealth.
According to UBS, women already control 33% of total global investable wealth, a share projected to rise to 35% by 2025.[1] While this shift is global, its implications in the GCC are particularly profound. Wealth in the GCC is heavily concentrated in family businesses, sovereign-linked enterprises, and private assets. Here, preparing women for financial leadership is no longer a question of equity; it is a matter of long-term wealth preservation.
