The fortune of the majority owner of the Russian company Severstal, Alexei Mordashov, and his family reached $ 30 billion for the first time.
To date, this makes him the richest businessman in Russia, according to data from the application of the American magazine “Forbes” Forbes Real-Time, quoted by BTA.
Shares of Severstal on the Moscow Stock Exchange on Friday reached a record high of 1,414.4 rubles ($ 192.41) for one. Recently, on Investor’s Day, the company announced that it expects demand for steel in Russia to increase by 3.1 percent this year.
Mordashov ranks first in the Forbes Real-Time rankings. So far, only Vladimir Potatin has managed to accumulate such a state, whose fortune has shrunk due to the fall in the shares of his company Norilsk Nickel.
Severstal is a vertically integrated mining and metallurgical company. At the end of 2020, it produced 11.31 million tons of steel. Its main owner Alexei Mordashov holds 77.02 percent of the shares, reminds TASS.
