Investment Opportunities: Accessing the World’s Wealthiest Cities

Investment Opportunities. The world’s wealthiest individuals shape our cities as much as cities shape wealth creation. This symbiotic relationship drives a clear pattern: capital follows talent, talent follows opportunity, and opportunity clusters in urban centers that understand this dynamic. Our wealth report 2025  https://citizenshiphubs.com/worlds-wealthiest-cities-report/  reveals not just where wealth resides, but how it moves and multiplies across global cities. Leaders and rising stars The USA dominates the Top 50 list with 11 cities, led by New York City with 384,500 millionaires, though the Bay Area which includes the city of San Francisco and Silicon Valley now hosts more billionaires and continues to thrive as the epicenter of technological wealth creation.

A Landmark Year for Wealth Migration

The landscape of wealth migration underwent another transformative year in 2024, with 134,000 high-net-worth individuals relocating and establishing new domiciles worldwide. This exceeded initial forecasts driven by robust inflows to the UAE, USA, and Italy, alongside higher-than-expected departures from the UK. Looking ahead to 2025, projections indicate an even greater surge in millionaire migration, with 142,000 high-net-worth individuals with liquid investable wealth of USD 1 million or more expected to seek new horizons. This represents the most significant wealth migration wave ever documented and reflects fundamental changes in how affluent individuals approach geographic and financial planning. Figure 1. Millionaire Migration, 2013–2025 Forecast Note: Figures rounded to the nearest 1,000. The Covid-19 pandemic prevented millionaire migration tracking in 2020 and 2021.

Israel Millionaire Migration: A Changing Landscape

For years, Israel has stood out as a rare economic bright spot in a turbulent region. The country’s thriving tech sector, nicknamed Silicon Wadi, along with its vibrant culture, Mediterranean climate, and attractive tax policies, drew ambitious entrepreneurs and investors from across the globe. Between 2013 and 2022, Israel attracted a net inflow of over 10,500 high-net-worth individuals, solidifying its position as one of the world’s top destinations for millionaire migration. However, the outbreak of war in 2023 has dramatically altered Israel’s status as a magnet for the wealthy. In a stunning reversal, Israel flipped from a net inflow of 1,100 millionaires in 2022 to a net outflow of approximately 200 millionaires in 2023. This seismic shift underscores how swiftly conflict can unravel a country’s appeal to the world’s wealthy and globally mobile.   A nation under siege: Israel’s mounting risks The ongoing war has not only shattered Israel’s image…
