This study looks at all companies registered in Inner London and where their total assets are more than �100,000,000.

The statutory Inner London boroughs are: Camden, Greenwich, Hackney, Hammersmith and Fulham, Islington, Kensington and Chelsea, Lambeth, Lewisham, Southwark, Tower Hamlets, Wandsworth and Westminster. The population in 2011 was 3,232,000.

The aim of this study is to provide an overview of the key movers and shakers in the Inner London corporate sector. Only key data has been isolated, particularly the company's net worth and total assets, but also its full name, date incorporated, registered office, activities, shareholders, directors (with date of birth, occupation and nationality) and number of employees.

Two indicators of size are used: net worth and total assets. These are preferable to turnover which is influenced by profit margins and whether the companies are capital or labour intensive.

For Inner London, there are approximately 288,000 businesses with around 2 million employees. Most commercial activity is focused on Central London and Canary Wharf and 10% of public sector employment is in Westminster.
