Forbes publishes annual list the most powerful people in the world. The selection of candidates for ranking is carried out according to the following criteria: whether a person’s decisions have an impact on many other people, what is his financial condition (politicians are estimated by the country's GDP), how far his sphere of influence is spread and how actively this power is used.

Let's take a closer look at the top ten most influential people in the world according to Forbes in 2015.

10. Larry Page

An American scientist and entrepreneur who has become one of the creators of the search engine Google and PageRank - the most famous indicator of the "importance" of a web page among other documents. And Google’s second founding father, Sergey Brin, is on the 30th place in the ranking of the most influential people on the planet.

9. Narendra Modi

The foreign policy pursued by the Prime Minister of India helped the country to receive multimillion-dollar investments and push Pakistan away from the northern Indian regions. During the year that Modi was in power, the country's GDP grew by 7%. He strengthened his prestige as a world leader through official meetings with Barack Obama and Xi Jinping. Modi’s recent visit to Silicon Valley has shown that India plays an important role in high technology.

8. David Cameron

The first British prime minister to veto an amendment to the EU treaty. He is also the only Prime Minister, except Margaret Thatcher, re-elected immediately after full tenure.

7. Janet Yellen

The chairman of the US Federal Reserve is considered one of the icons of a business woman. This 69-year-old woman is the author of many articles and publications, some of which were written together with her husband, Nobel laureate George Akerlof. She also received numerous awards for her contribution to the development of economic science. Yellen is an outspoken supporter of using the powers of the Federal Reserve to reduce unemployment, and more willingly than other economists, she is ready to make a slight increase in inflation to achieve this goal.

6. Bill Gates

The person thanks to whom we can scold Windows 10 and sigh nostalgically for MS? DOS takes 6th line in the Forbes list. Not the financial success of Bill as the richest IT businessman was the reason for his being in the top 10 ranking of influential people, but charitable contributions. The couple Bill and Melinda Gates donated about $ 30 billion to provide selfless help to other people and plans to allocate 95% of their fortune for these purposes.

5. Xi Jinping

Strengthened the country's legal system and takes a tough stance in China's foreign policy. The developed economy of the Celestial Empire and its strong defense system put Xi in fifth place in the top ten people who enjoy the greatest influence in the world.

4. Francis

The first and only Pope who openly supported homosexuality. The head of the Vatican put an end to the centuries-old war between gay people and the Catholic Church.

3. Barack Obama

The first black US president put an end to American aggression in Iraq and Afghanistan, and presented the country in a new light to the world. President Barack twice, in 2016 will not be able to take part in the elections. US presidential candidates are headed by Hilary Clinton and Joe Biden.

2. Angela Merkel

The German Chancellor is the most influential woman of 2015. She is loved alone and vehemently condemned by other Germans for her open borders policy and the reception of a large number of internally displaced persons from the Middle East.

1. Vladimir Putin

The President of Russia regularly appears at the top of various ratings. In the spring of 2015, readers of the American magazine Time called him the most powerful person on Earth. And Forbes for the third year in a row gives Putin the title of the most powerful person in the world.

The special operation he initiated against the ISIS terrorist organization showed how powerful and significant the state is in the international arena Russia. Putin’s rating has also grown within Russia. According to October data from the All-Russian Center for the Study of Public Opinion, up to 90% of Russians approve of the work of the head of the country, despite the deterioration in the economy.
