What happens when a single city holds more wealth than entire nations?
In short: This documentary explores the 28 wealthiest cities on Earth, moving beyond simple bank balances to examine how these urban powerhouses generate and multiply global capital.
Dubai and Abu Dhabi's oil-backed horizons, alongside New York and London's banking hubs, are analysed within this film to explore how immense city riches operate. It highlights hubs where billionaires cluster, sovereign wealth funds manage trillions, and major stock exchanges dictate global markets.
By profiling 28 locations—including high-tech centers like Shenzhen, traditional finance hubs like Zurich and Luxembourg, and massive metropolitan economies like Mumbai and Shanghai—the documentary illustrates how specific urban environments reshape the global economy through concentrated boardrooms and government decisions.
