UBS: Crypto Gains Traction as Inflation-Hedging Tool for High-Net-Worth Investors

UBS’s latest research reveals a growing trend among high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) allocating up to 5% of their portfolios towards cryptocurrencies. This reflects the increasing demand for inflation protection and currency diversification as inflationary pressures continue to rise. The bank’s Global Investment Returns Yearbook highlights this shift, emphasizing that digital assets are no longer viewed as speculative but are becoming increasingly integral parts of wealth management strategies.
