By: We the Italians Editorial Staff

Italy is a land of ultrarich individuals. Within its borders, 472,000 people own at least one million euros. But climb higher up the wealth ladder, and you reach the realm of billionaires – a group whose global fortunes have exploded over the past ten years.

From 2015 to 2025, the combined wealth of billionaires worldwide surged by 138%, leaping from $6,300 billion to $15,000 billion. This dramatic increase underscores how concentrated wealth has grown.
