Depends how one defines wealth.
The largest corporate entities in the world, as well as the entities with the highest income, are municipalities.

The average large municipality say 1 million residents plus, dwarfs most global mega corporations in respect of both staff, assets and income.

Most mega corporations become such via government contracts.

Municipal, state and federal governments are the richest, most powerful entities on earth, followed by the traditional international churches, and only then come the commercial corporations.

Whilst corporations can influence government, and can remove politicians, politicians are a small percentage of government, and civil services do as they please, as most politicians do not understand, or care what they do.

Whoever controls the budgets of government, controls government.
