The Africa Wealth Report has released a list of the top ten countries on the continent with the highest number of millionaires in 2023 with Tanzania managing the tenth position.
The Definition of millionaire from the Cambridge Academic Content Dictionary is a person who has more than a million dollars (USD 1,000,000) in property, possessions, or money saved.
Tanzania is reported to have 2400 millionaires identified in 2023 so far.
Kenya which has three-times the number of millionaires (7,700) ranks much higher at Number 4.
As it happens, Kenya and Tanzania are the only East African Community Member States that have made it into the Africa Wealth Report’s top ten listing.
South Africa is topping the bill at Number One with a total of 37,800-dollar designated millionaires.
Egypt comes second with a total of 16,100 millionaires as of the latest count.

Ghana is at Number 9, only managing to beat Tanzania which closes the top-ten list.
