The margin of New York's global lead in private equity firms, like its lead in hedge funds, is astonishing.

New York is home to the largest number of private equity firms globally, with 445 active firms currently based there, and $633 billion in private equity funds being raised over the past 10 years. New York is followed by London, with the 279 firms based in the city having raised $337 billion in private equity funds during the last 10 years. When the $40b from Greenwich, CT is added in, the lead is even more stunning.
