our 27th year publishing the Forbes Billionaires list Though we’ve been at it a long time, it is never an easy task Our reporters dig deep and travel far To compile net worths, we value individuals’ assets—including stakes in public and private companies, real estate, yachts, art and cash—and account for debt We attempt to vet these numbers with all billionaires Some co-operate; others don’t We also consult an array of outside experts in various fields We list individuals rather than large, multi-generational families who share large fortunes So Maja Oeri, who has a disclosed stake in pharmaceutical firm Roche, makes the list, but her eight relatives who, with a nonprofit foundation, share a $16 billion fortune not In some cases we list siblings together if the ownership breakdown among them isn’t clear, but here, too, they must be worth a minimum of $2 billion together, or equivalent to $1 billion apiece, to make the cut We split up these fortunes when we get better information, as we did with the Matte and Rawsing families this year Children are listed with their parents when one person is the founder and in control Those fortunes are identified as “& family” Our estimates are a snapshot of wealth on Feb 14, when we locked in stock prices and exchange rates from around the world If a stock market wasn’t open on that day—as was the case with Taiwan,
