After two years of decline, the total wealth of the 300 richest in Switzerland has risen again and reached a record high of 833.5 billion francs. Total assets increased by 4.8 percent, higher than the previous high from the year of Corona 2021.
Dependent on reversals are gains in the stock and real estate markets, two areas in which the wealthy are traditionally heavily invested.
Federal Number 156
Neo-Rapperswil Roger Federer is not in the top ten. His account balance rises by 100 million – that means a jump from 160th to 156th place.
His future neighbor Jorge Lemann, on the other hand, is in a high position. Despite recent losses, the king of beer and fast food from Kempraten is in sixth place on the list with assets of 17 to 18 billion.
100 million as a limit
Swiss nationals and foreigners living in this country are on the list. The minimum to be on the list is an asset of 100 million francs.
Wertheimer at the top
The co-owner of Chanel Gérard Wertheimer (73), who lives in Geneva, ends up in first place. However, the king of fashion has lost something – his fortune fell from 41 to 42 to 37.5 billion francs at the moment.
The other places on the podium remain the same: the families owned by Roche Hoffmann, Oeri and Duschmalé with 28.5 billion francs and Klaus-Michael Kühne (87) with 27.5 billion francs occupy 2 places and 3.
However, there was a change at the top: the Firmenich family, which earned around five billion francs through the merger of its flavors and fragrances group with DSM, pushed the Kamprad heirs out of the top ten.
Blocher with 15 billion
The Blocher clan doesn’t have to starve either. His fortune increased by a billion francs. With assets of 15 to 16 billion, the family has moved up a level and is now in ninth place.
