MANILA, Philippines – Out of 1,645 world billionaires on Forbes Magazine’s list this year, 172 are women.
The figure is equivalent to a little over 10%, which means women are still a “tiny minority” on the list. But Forbes said this is already a record high.
Some of these women are self-made billionaires. Others inherited their wealth from their husbands or parents.
Find out who the 10 richest women in the world are.
EDITORS’ NOTE: The infographic used in an earlier version this report inadvertently identified the 10th richest woman as Laurene Power Jobs. We have replaced it to reflect her correct name, Laurene Powell Jobs. We regret the error.
