Prime prices in context 

Last year we referred to 2021 as 鈥渁n anomaly鈥�; a year characterised by stellar price growth as markets reopened post-Covid, and revenge spending took hold.

Off the back of such a boom, you might be forgiven for thinking 2022 would see a return to business as usual. Far from it. Omit 2021, and 2022 posted the highest level of prime price growth on an annual basis (5.2%) since the global financial crisis ()

Sentiment shifted gear in mid-2022 as inflation waved goodbye to its transitory status and the cost of debt ramped up, recession loomed, the Ukraine conflict led to rocketing energy prices and stock markets, not to mention crypto, went wobbly.

Why prices grew

So what was behind the price growth? Wealth preservation, safe haven capital flight and supply constraints played their part, but the pandemic-induced surge clearly had more left in the tank.

Covid-19 underlined the fragility of life and the need for connectivity, and sparked a mass transition to hybrid working. For the world鈥檚 wealthy, this increased their appetite to buy, with 17% telling us they added to their portfolios in 2022.
