Affluent Survey

“Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité” - The French national motto (“freedom, equality, brotherhood”) dates back from the French revolution, more than 2 centuries ago. Since then, those values have trickled through Europe with ups and downs. How free, equal and connected do people in Europe feel today?

There is nothing average about Europe’s Affluent. Understanding the behaviour of Europe’s Affluent is crucial to marketers, not only do they have the majority of disposable income in the region but as early adopters and opinion formers, where they lead others follow. However, it would be a mistake to think of them as in anyway average.

This year Ipsos celebrates 20 years of the European Media and Marketing Survey (EMS), or as it is called now, The Ipsos Affluent Survey Europe. 20 years of tracking the Affluent, with their disposable income and whom are disproportionately important to most marketers of products and services.
