"New data from WealthInsight shows that Beijing and Shanghai each have
more multi-millionaires now than Los Angeles. The study measures the
segment of the population worth $30 million or more, known in
wealth-industry parlance as "ultra-high-net-worth individuals."
Beijing
has 1,318 people in that group. Shanghai has 2,028. Both are higher
than Los Angeles, which has 950 people worth $30 million or more.
New York still towers over the others when it comes to the ultra-highs, with 2,929 people worth $30 million or more. But
the BRICS are catching up. Sao Paulo, Brazil, has 1,310 ultra-highs –
more than San Francisco, Washington and Miami combined. Moscow is now on
par with Chicago when it comes to ultra-highs, while Mumbai has more
than Dallas.
The number of ultra-highs in secondary BRIC cities like Puna, Fuzhou and Chongqing could nearly double over the next four years."
