A new study by the Hurun Report and the Shenzhen Catic Wellness Group reveals that wealthy Chinese consumers are spending about one-fourth of their family’s budget each month on healthcare and fitness which encompasses fitness classes and healthcare products. The study was based on a survey of 500 wealthy individuals in 11 major Chinese cities whose average personal fortune is CNY24 mn (USD3.6 mn).
