By 2020 Euromonitor estimates that the number of people in China with a disposable income above US $ 10,000 (\u20ac7,906 \/67,772 RMB) will have quadrupled to 222 million households. This will drive household consumption as increasing numbers of people will be able to afford items such as luxury goods.<\/p>\n<p>The report also indicates that young consumers will be the growing force behind household consumption; despite the fact that by <strong>2012 China and India will have the world&#8217;s largest population of people <\/strong>aged 65 and over, young consumers make more frequent purchases of large items such as cars, houses and household appliances.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The luxury market in China already exceeds that of the USA <\/strong>according to statistics released by Chinese newspaper The People&#8217;s Daily in 2009. The paper reports that China&#8217;s luxury consumption accounts for 25% of the global market, and the World Luxury Association 2009-210 report revealed that Chinese consumers accounted for a quarter of Gucci group&#8217;s sales worldwide.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other emerging markets such as India <\/strong>are expected to follow a similar pattern of consumer development.<\/p>\n<p>Euromonitor predicts
