Since the year 2009, one of the leading business magazines in the world Forbes releases an annual list of World’s Most Powerful People. This list is prepared on the basis of four parameters. First, the number of people over whom a particular individual has impact over, then control over financial resources, next is the contribution of these people in multiple spheres, and finally, active use of the power/influence by these individuals. In other words, heads of states, entrepreneurs, financiers, and philanthropists who have influenced the world make it to this list.

Interestingly, this list features 1 in 100 million people in the planet and ergo, the numbers varies every single year. Going by this 0.00000001% parameter this year the list has 73 personalities from across the globe. Russian President Vladimir Putin tops the list this year and PM of India Narendra Modi has been ranked as the 9th most powerful person in the world.
