A list of the richest and most influential cities in the world in 2010 was released by British real estate agent Knight Frank and Citibank of U.S. on Wednesday.
The ranking is based on the comprehensive analysis of four indexes: Economic vitality, political influence, research ability and living standard.
New York, London and Paris occupy the top 3 positions. Beijing is listed in the ninth place.
However, no city is the all-rounder. For instance, New York took the lead at the ranking of indexes of "economic vitality" and "research ability", but its political influence came in second place and living standard even No. 8!
Meanwhile, some metropolises have had markedly progress, such as Beijing，whose political influence advanced to No. 4, and Berlin, which is the runner-up in the ranking of living standard.

How come Hong Kong is not on this list.
zürich, switzerland should probably be in that list too...
yeah! Where is Evansville Indiana!
Wasn't Moscow #1 the last few years? What happened? Did all those Oligarch's who bought most of Russia (during the 90's "fire sale")finally get the clue to leave?
how come Abu dhabi is no included in the list?
No way... Hong Kong has to be on the list. In China, You should see Hong Kong as the first, Shanghai as the second, and then Beijing as the third. Hong Kong and Shanghai are coming close to the same plain, so Beijing can't be on the list without the other two.
