Money men in Moscow
More billionaires, including Chelsea boss Roman Abramovich, are based in Moscow than any other city in the world,
Forbes magazine's Russian edition said yesterday, listing 33 billionaires who either live in the Russian capital or
amassed their fortunes there.
Moscow edges out New York, with 31 billionaires, magazine officials said at a news conference.
But despite Russia's currently thriving economy, Forbes counts far more billionaires in the United States -277
compared with Russia's 36.
