Super-rich Swedes
Maddy Savage asks why Sweden has more dollar billionaires, relative to its population size, than almost anywhere else in the world.
Sweden has a global reputation for championing high taxes and social equality, but it has more dollar billionaires, relative to its population size, than almost anywhere else on the planet. Stockholm-based journalist Maddy Savage untangles the rise of the super rich, from the country鈥檚 booming tech sector to wealth and taxation policy shifts. She also delves into the deep-rooted cultural norms which can discourage Swedes from celebrating money, and investigates the rise in impact investing, as some of Sweden鈥檚 richest business leaders plough their cash into new startups prioritizing social and environmental sustainability.
