Mukesh Ambani and Li Ka-shing may soon get new company in their wealth club. While the U.S. and western European economies continue to be in the doldrums, Asia, with its steady economic growth, will supply the next set of millionaires (and billionaires), says a new report.

　　印度首富穆克什•安巴尼（Mukesh Ambani）和李嘉誠(chéng)（Li Ka-shing）所在的財(cái)富俱樂(lè)部可能會(huì)很快增添新成員。一份新出爐的報(bào)告說(shuō)，盡管美國(guó)和西歐經(jīng)濟(jì)體持續(xù)低迷，但經(jīng)濟(jì)穩(wěn)步增長(zhǎng)的亞洲在未來(lái)將出現(xiàn)一批百萬(wàn)甚至億萬(wàn)富豪。

　　CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets, an Asian brokerage and investment group in a report on wealth, estimates Asia (excluding-Japan) has 1.2 million high-net-worth individuals, those who have investable assets of $1 million or above (excluding their first homes). Within five years this number will increase 2.4 times, from 2010 levels, taking the number of fat cats to 2.8 million, and the dollar value of their assets to $16 trillion from $5.6 trillion.

　　Indonesia, China and Thailand will see the highest growth rates of over 20%.

　　印度尼西亞、中國(guó)和泰國(guó)的富豪增加速度將會(huì)最高，超過(guò)20%。

　　China will make up the largest part of the increase in wealth for the region. Over the next five years, some 900,000 Chinese will enter the wealth ranks, says CLSA. Factor in the really, really fat cats of Honk Kong, it will make up over 60% of CLSA's estimated increase in HNWIs' total wealth in the region.

　　在這一地區(qū)的財(cái)富增量中，中國(guó)所占比重最大。里昂證券說(shuō)，未來(lái)五年約有90萬(wàn)中國(guó)人將進(jìn)入財(cái)富階層。算上香港的超級(jí)富豪，中國(guó)在里昂證券估計(jì)的該地區(qū)高凈值個(gè)人總財(cái)富增量中所占比重將超過(guò)60%。

　　India, once again, is a distant second. The number of Indian fat cats will rise from approximately 170,000 in 2010 to over 400,000 in five years, accounting for a mere 15% of the projected increase in investable assets. The other Asian nations will contribute a much smaller share of the wealth generation, the report said.

　　印度再次位居第二，而且和中國(guó)的差距不小。五年內(nèi)印度富豪的數(shù)量將從2010年大約17萬(wàn)人增加到超過(guò)40萬(wàn)人，在可投資資產(chǎn)的預(yù)計(jì)增量中只占15%。報(bào)告說(shuō)，其他亞洲國(guó)家在所創(chuàng)造的財(cái)富中所占比例要小得多。

　　The key drivers for wealth creation include an increase in savings (as the economy improves); an improved return on assets as stock markets provide strong returns and property prices escalate; and finally, an appreciation of Asian exchange rates.

　　財(cái)富增加的主要推動(dòng)因素包括：經(jīng)濟(jì)狀況改善令儲(chǔ)蓄增加；股市提供強(qiáng)勁收益以及房?jī)r(jià)上升提高了資產(chǎn)的回報(bào)率；最后一點(diǎn)則是亞洲匯率升值。

　　All that's well and good but as the report points out, the gap between the haves and the have nots, will also continue to grow. The skew is more pronounced in developing countries like India and Indonesia and less pronounced in developed countries like Singapore and South Korea.

　　所有這些固然不錯(cuò)，但就像這份報(bào)告指出的那樣，富人和窮人之間的差距也將繼續(xù)擴(kuò)大。這種差距在印度和印度尼西亞等發(fā)展中國(guó)家更為明顯，在新加坡和韓國(guó)等發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)家則不那么突出。

　　In Singapore and Hong Kong, the average adult's wealth is around $150,000. For the less developed countries, wealth levels are a fraction of these. The typical person in India, the Philippines and Indonesia has less than $5,000. In China, mean wealth is around $22,000 per adult.

　　在新加坡和香港，成年人平均財(cái)富在15萬(wàn)美元左右。對(duì)于欠發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)家來(lái)說(shuō)，其民眾的財(cái)富平均水平只是上面這個(gè)數(shù)字的一小部分。印度、菲律賓和印度尼西亞成年人的平均財(cái)富不到5,000美元。在中國(guó)，這一數(shù)字大約為22,000美元。
