| | + | |
| | + | Forex revenue: Migrating millionaires are a vital source of forex revenue as they tend to bring their money with them when they move to a new country. For instance, a migrant who brings USD 10 million with them is equivalent to a country generating USD 10 million in export revenue as both transactions generate USD 10 million of forex revenue for the country. |

| | + | *New business: Many relocating high-net-worth individuals (around 20%) are entrepreneurs and company founders, who often start businesses in their new country and therefore create local jobs. This percentage rises to over 60% for centi-millionaires and billionaires. |

| | + | *Stock markets: Millionaires boost the local stock market via their equity investments. Also, some high-net-worth business owners publicly list their companies on the local stock exchange. |
