The full distribution

Household wealth in Singapore, on a log scale.

Each bar is a wealth bracket; its height is the share of all households in that bracket. The x-axis is logarithmic, so a small and a large fortune don't look like they live on different planets. Half of Singapore sits below the dashed median line; one in ten sit above the top-decile line.

Below median Above median Top quartile Top decile You

Each bar is a decile of households, 10% each; its height is how tightly that tenth is packed in wealth terms, derived from the published decile thresholds. The top bar covers everyone above the ninth decile.

Three numbers worth the asterisk

What the percentile hides.

The mean vs median gap

The mean is 3.9× the median.

The median household in Singapore holds $113K; the mean is $441K. That gap is the signature of a long right tail: a small number of very wealthy households pulls the average up, which is why the median is the truer middle.

The first rung

The first $52K separates the bottom from the middle.

Below the lower deciles, households are typically renters with limited financial assets. Above this line, a primary residence enters the picture and the asset base compounds. The moment of buying is the single biggest step on the wealth ladder.

The pension blind spot

Your real economic wealth is higher than this.

This measure excludes accrued entitlements from public and most occupational pension schemes, so the real economic wealth of a typical household is meaningfully higher than the figure shown. The wealthier you are, the smaller that adjustment is in proportion.

Frequently asked questions

Per the UBS Global Wealth Report 2025 (end-2024), about 6.7% of Singapore's adults have wealth above USD 1,000,000 — that's the practical "top 1%" line. Singapore had 331,000 millionaires at end-2024. Around half of Singapore's adults have net wealth above USD 100,000, ranking it among the world's wealthiest populations per capita.

The median Singaporean adult had a net wealth of USD 113,000 at end-2024 (UBS GWR 2025). The mean was USD 441,000 — about 3.9× the median. Singapore ranks in the top 5 globally for both mean and median wealth per adult.

Singapore's Department of Statistics publishes household income data but not a comprehensive household-wealth distribution. The standard cross-country source for wealth is the UBS Global Wealth Report, which reports net wealth per adult in USD. Local-currency conversion at end-2024 (~SGD 1.36 per USD): median ≈ SGD 154,000, mean ≈ SGD 600,000.

Singapore's median wealth per adult (USD 113,000) is comparable to mid-tier OECD countries, but the mean (USD 441,000) ranks among the world's top 5 alongside Switzerland, the US and Hong Kong. The high mean-to-median ratio (3.9×) reflects significant wealth concentration at the very top, with many ultra-high-net-worth individuals attracted to Singapore as a financial centre.

Singapore is a global financial centre with low taxes, high homeownership (around 90%, due in part to public housing schemes), strong financial markets, and policies that attract wealthy individuals from across Asia. The Central Provident Fund (CPF) ensures that most Singaporeans accumulate retirement savings, while real estate values in this small city-state are among the world's highest.
