2024 Author: Henry Conors | [email protected]. Last modified: 2024-02-12 02:45
It's no secret that Russia is the largest country in the world. Of course, China is ahead of the rest in terms of the number of the living population, but in terms of size, it is the Russian Federation that knows no equal. The land of the country, rich in various resources, is gushing with gigantic opportunities for the development of industries. The oil, metallurgical and gas industries are gaining a high position in the world market at a galloping pace, allowing their owners to get rich and join the list of Russia's millionaires. Therefore, it is not surprising that the vastness of the country hides a huge number of we althy people.
The richest man in Russia according to the Forbes magazine, which understands such matters, is Alisher Usmanov. This person is known to the public as the owner of the Metalloinvest holding, the CEO of the largest and most famous gas company in Russia Gazprom, the owner of almost 40% of the shares of the social network Vkontakte and 30% of the shares of Arsenal. Before Usmanov, this position was occupied by Vladimir Lisin. Alisher Usmanov owns over $18 billion in assets.
Second position in the rating "Mostrich man in Russia” is occupied, according to some authoritative publications, by Mikhail Fridman. This person is the owner of the main stake in the Alfa Group holding. His financial and industrial fortune is estimated at 16.5 billion US dollars. "Iron" tycoon Vladimir Lisin, who until that time occupied the top line of the list of "richest man in Russia", competes with Fridman and, according to some reports, it is he who is the second "Rockefeller" of the country. The fortune of the shareholder of the Novolipetsk Metallurgical Plant, the author of numerous books and publications fluctuates within 16 "green" billion.
It should be noted that from month to month, various publications "count" other people's money and edit lists, so it is likely that yesterday's winner of the silver medal in the race for the title of "The Richest Man in Russia" today may find himself in an honorable third place. It was in this position that another metallurgical master with his “iron” 15 billion turned out to be Alexey Mordashov.
Leonid Mikhelson closes the top ten richest people in the country (some publications give him an honorable third place), comfortably settled on gas and oil pipes. Compared to last year, his capital has grown by almost 3 billion, which is not bad at all in the conditions of the economic crisis.
Of course, a kind of game "Who is the richest man in Russia?" somewhat reminiscent of the television game "Who is the mostweak link?”, Only in this financial game, participants not only drop out, but also join the ranks of billionaires. I would like to pay special attention to young talents who managed to make a fortune using modern IT technologies. These are Evgeny Kaspersky (by his last name it is not difficult to guess how the boy earned his billions), a classmate of Pavel Durov and, concurrently, co-owner of the Vkontakte social web Vyacheslav Mirilashili and Arkady Volozh (founder of Google's competitor, the Yandex search engine).
The list of the country's billionaires also includes a woman's name - Elena Baturina, wife of Yuri Luzhkov. Beznesledi has crossed the threshold of one billion and is the only representative of the fair sex from Russia to make it to the Forbes rating page.
