Hot on Zurich’s heels is Geneva, another Swiss city and a hub of diplomatic relations, which pays its accountants an average salary of £66,054. Accountants in Zurich average bonus ranks third (£3,547) out every city that Emoulment.com sampled, coming in just behind is Chicago (£4,696) and Leeds in the UK (£3,813).

In contrast, when Emoulment.com surveyed 4,350 bankers based in London, it found that managing directors in investment banking received £544,000 in salary and bonus, which is eight times more than accountants based in the highest-paid city of Zurich.

According to the survey, New York has ranked third top city for accountants based on salary, with an average pay packet of £54,369, and bonus of £3,486. Accountants tend to work in the metropolis that is NYC, with "the best-compensated" number-crunchers laying their expertise in securities and commodity contracts, intermediation, brokerage and exchanges, according to usnews.com.

Dublin has ranked third bottom city out of the 30 locations surveyed, with accountants earning an average salary of £26,165. Including bonuses, however, the city with a 12.5% corporate tax rate pays its accounting professionals an average of £29,709. On the other hand, London City's investment analysts received more than double this figure, with Emolument.com reporting an average salary of £61,000 for this group of financial professionals.
