Here are the richest and wealthiest people in Kuwait.The person with the highest net worth in Kuwait is Bassam Alghanim. How does your net worth compare to other people in this Country. Forbes has released its World’s Billionaires 2021 ranking, and despite 2020 being one of the most difficult and unexpected in recent history it was clearly not a problem for the world’s richest people. In fact, rather than seeing the billionaire population fall, last year witnessed a boom. There are 660 more billionaires worldwide in 2021 than there were in 2020—including 493 newcomers that have never featured on the Forbes’ list before. That equates to roughly one new billionaire being created every 17 hours in 2020. And that’s without Saudi Arabia even being considered—the kingdom has not been covered by the Forbes US ranking since 2018. Globally, Jeff Bezos is the world’s richest person for the fourth consecutive year with a net worth of $177 billion, while Elon Musk bags the number two spot with $151 billion. This year there are 22 Arab billionaires worldwide compared to 21 in 2020. While this year’s list lost Kuwait’s Kutayba Alghanim, it welcomed back Qatar’s Hamad bin Jassim Al Thani with an estimated wealth of $1.3 billion, and Morocco’s Othman Benjelloun & family, also with $1.3 billion. Egypt’s Nassef Sawiris is still the richest Arab in the world, with a net worth of $8.3 billion—$3.3 billion more than last year. His most valuable asset is a nearly 6% stake in sportswear maker Adidas. kuwait Businessman kuwait Businessman fastnews kuwait Businessman fastnews kuwait Businessman
