Where to get a list of ultra high net worth individuals
BillionaireList supplies an ultra high net worth individuals list for the billionaire tier, with 3,368 living people whose latest dated public estimate is at least $1 billion. Filter by country, industry or minimum net worth and export the results to Excel or CSV with the publisher and source URL attached to each figure. UHNW usually starts at $30 million in net assets, so this is the top tier of that market, not a complete list of everyone above $30 million.
What is in each record
A useful UHNW database gives a researcher enough context to check a figure before adding it to a prospect brief. The export has the same 14 columns in XLSX and CSV, with additional profile context available through the profile link.
Net worth and estimate date
Net worth is expressed in whole US dollars, alongside the date of that estimate. Treat it as a published estimate of assets and liabilities, not cash available to invest, buy a property or make a gift.
Publisher and source URL
The publisher and original source link travel with the figure. Keep them in the research file so a colleague can read the evidence and assess the estimate without repeating your search.
Country and city context
Country is an export column. City appears on the public profile where recorded, rather than in the 14-column export. These are geographic research facts, not a home address, proof of tax residence or an outreach location.
Industry and source of wealth
Industry groups prospects by the activity behind a fortune. Source of wealth adds the business context. Together they help a banker assign sector coverage or a fundraiser prepare relevant questions before a meeting.
Self-made status, age and last change
Self-made status and age are included where established. Last change in USD and the previous estimate date show the comparison window. A change in estimated wealth does not by itself prove a sale or liquidity event.
Who uses a billionaire tier UHNWI list
Start with a defined territory and a reason for researching it. A high net worth individuals list supports account selection and preparation, while your team establishes suitability, relationships and permission for outreach.
Private banks and wealth managers
Build a country and industry shortlist for coverage planning. Bring a dated estimate and source of wealth into the prospect brief, then verify investable assets and service needs through your own relationship process.
Family office business development
Single and multi-family office teams can research principals whose business backgrounds match their services. Use the list to frame account research, then establish the office structure, decision makers and existing advisers independently.
Luxury, private aviation and yacht sales
Define a territory around relevant industries and wealth thresholds. Research the principal before preparing an introduction, without treating estimated net worth as proof of buying intent, aircraft ownership or a current purchase mandate.
High-end real estate teams
Prepare market research and buyer briefs using country, business background and dated wealth context. Check property interests and representation separately. A city on a public profile is not evidence of a current property search.
Major gifts fundraisers
Use estimated wealth as capacity context for prospect research. Assess mission fit, public giving and existing relationships separately before assigning a cultivation plan. A large fortune alone does not establish philanthropic interest or an appropriate ask.
Journalists and analysts
Create a sector or country shortlist with citations that survive the spreadsheet handoff. Compare estimate dates before drawing conclusions and distinguish a valuation change from a documented business event in your reporting.

How to build and use your list
- 1
Filter the universe
Choose country, industry and minimum net worth in the builder. Add self-made status if it serves your research question. Leaving the filters open returns the world billionaire ranking rather than the broader millionaire population.
- 2
Open the live list
Review the matching people and open profiles to check dates, sources and business context. Confirm that the geography and sector match your territory before moving the records into an account plan.
- 3
Export XLSX or CSV
Confirm your account and export from the list page. Test the sample against your spreadsheet or CRM mapping, keep the source columns, and use a paid plan for exports within its monthly allowance.
- 4
Set alerts on changes
Watch relevant people for new estimates and changes. Review the evidence behind an alert before acting on it, and refresh your research notes so a prospect brief does not silently retain an older figure.
What this list covers and what it does not
UHNW usually means $30 million or more in net assets. BillionaireList covers only the top tier, living people with a dated public estimate of $1 billion or more. It is not a census of private wealth and does not include every person between $30 million and $1 billion.
For that broader tier, vendors such as Wealth-X, WealthEngine and iWave model wealth profiles under quote-based contracts. Their methods, available sources and export rights depend on the product and agreement. Ask for a sample, the definition of wealth used and the terms for your intended workflow before comparing costs.

| Wealth-X | Broader UHNW wealth intelligence | Varies by profile and product, check a sample | By product and contract | Quote only |

Questions about the UHNWI list
Where can I get a list of ultra high net worth individuals?
BillionaireList provides a sourced, exportable list of ultra high net worth individuals in the billionaire tier. Filter living people worth $1 billion or more by country, industry and minimum net worth, then export to Excel or CSV. For broader coverage starting at $30 million, consider a specialist wealth intelligence vendor.
What is considered ultra high net worth?
Ultra high net worth usually means at least $30 million in net assets. Definitions can differ over whether a primary residence or other assets count. BillionaireList covers only living people with a dated public net worth estimate of $1 billion or more, so it represents the top tier of that population.
How many ultra high net worth individuals are there in the United States?
US ultra high net worth population estimates vary by research firm, year and treatment of the $30 million threshold. BillionaireList currently counts 984 ranked people associated with the United States whose latest public estimate is at least $1 billion. That is the billionaire tier only, not the full US UHNW population.
Can I download a UHNWI list in Excel?
Yes. Build your filtered billionaire tier list, open the live results and choose an Excel XLSX export. CSV is also available. Both formats contain the same 14 columns, including net worth in USD, estimate date, publisher and source URL. A confirmed account gets one 25-row sample export to check the format.
How much does a UHNW database cost?
BillionaireList Pro costs $49 a month or $24 a month billed yearly for billionaire tier exports and alerts. Data costs $199 a month and adds full history and API access. Broader UHNW platforms such as Wealth-X and WealthEngine use quote-based contracts, so request pricing for your coverage and usage.
Is it legal to use a list of high net worth individuals for prospecting?
Public wealth information can support lawful prospect research, but public availability does not remove privacy or outreach obligations. Follow CAN-SPAM, TCPA and do-not-call rules where applicable, alongside relevant privacy law and the data license. BillionaireList sells no contact data, including email addresses or phone numbers, and wealth alone does not establish consent.
How often is the list updated?
The ranking is rebuilt daily from stored estimates, and public records are re-checked weekly. Each figure retains its own estimate date and source, so a daily rebuild does not imply every fortune was revalued that day. Use alerts for changes and check the dates before relying on a figure in research.
