Multipolitan Wealth Report 2025: Top Cities Where High-Net-Worth Nigerians Can Thrive
Lagos, July 29, 2025 — Multipolitan, a Singapore-headquartered international mobility platform, has released its flagship publication, Wealth Report 2025: The Taxed Generation, offering key insights into the cities best positioned to preserve and protect wealth in today’s evolving global landscape.

The findings provide timely intelligence for Nigerian investors, emerging high-net-worth individuals, and wealth managers navigating an increasingly complex economic environment. As Nigeria’s private wealth segment expands and more families build cross-generational assets, the report offers a practical framework for identifying jurisdictions that offer not just low tax exposure, but long-term access to international markets, regulatory certainty, and sustainable wealth structures.
The report introduces the inaugural Tax Friendly Cities Index 2025, ranking Abu Dhabi and Dubai in the top two positions globally. These cities were recognised for their investor-friendly tax regimes, legal stability, and strong governance. Singapore secured third place, reinforcing its position as a trusted hub for globally mobile families.

Five other Gulf cities: Manama, Doha, Kuwait City, Riyadh, and Muscat, were also listed among the top 20, affirming the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region’s growing significance as a destination for high-net-worth individuals and families prioritising fiscal efficiency and regulatory clarity.
The report identifies cities that combine favourable tax systems with broader economic and legal frameworks essential to long-term wealth planning. It also includes two additional indices: the Wealth Preservation Cities Index (2015–2025), which ranks Zug, Hong Kong, and Basel as the cities that best preserved purchasing power over the last decade; and the Smart & Sustainable Cities Index 2025, where Wellington, Copenhagen, and Singapore are recognised for their climate resilience, digital infrastructure, and future-focused planning.

“After a decade in private banking, one truth has stuck with me: where you place your wealth can matter just as much as how you grow it. The UAE & Singapore aren’t just attracting capital, they’re protecting it through fiscal prudence and stable governance.”
- Nicholas Michael, Group Head of Market Development, Multipolitan
The report is particularly relevant to Nigerian families who are increasingly exploring global mobility, not simply for migration purposes, but as a strategy to secure access to international markets, educational opportunities, and asset protection.

“Wealth that sleeps in uncertainty isn’t wealth - it’s risk. For Nigerian families with foresight, the focus has shifted from chasing returns to securing resilience. Cities like Singapore, Abu Dhabi, Doha, Wellington, and Copenhagen top Multipolitan’s indices for their governance, stability, and future readiness. We help families gain residency in cities that reflect these values.”
- Chee Okebalama, Executive Partner for Africa at Multipolitan
In addition to city rankings, The Wealth Report 2025 includes expert commentary from leading professionals in tax, wealth strategy, and cross-border planning, including former partners from EY, Deloitte, and BDO. Their perspectives cover topics such as compliance in a transparent world, AI-driven tax strategy, and new jurisdictional opportunities across Europe, North America, and the Middle East.
The report reflects a growing trend among high-net-worth families: global wealth planning now requires flexible structures, jurisdictional insight, and the ability to respond proactively to changing international regulations.
