The business and finance capital of Turkey, Istanbul is the country's largest metropolis with 15.2 million inhabitants in 2016. The city was 19% wealthier than Ankara, yet ranked below most Western European cities, by GDP per capita, in 2016. The central government aims to transform Istanbul into a key international financial centre, particularly by serving as a hub for Islamic banking and Arab investment funds, but political uncertainty hitting the economy in late 2016 complicates this process.
