The chart compares women’s share of wealth under management in Western Europe today with the larger share projected for 2030, tying that change to a broader shift in financial decision-making.
Measurement system
The reader is tracking both asset values and share of total AUM, so the chart combines euro-denominated scale with percentage share of the market.

The chart shows women investors moving from an important segment to a much larger force in the wealth-management market, making the growth hard to dismiss as marginal.
Key standout values or extremes
The strongest anchored values on the page are the current EUR 4.6 trillion controlled by women investors in Western Europe, roughly one-third of AUM today, and the projection to 45 percent and EUR 10 trillion by 2030.
