that there is more to come.
While prosperity is rising, in many respects, this year’s list of affluent Arabs also represents certain continuity, serving as a reminder of the dominance of an elite group now synonymous with success.
Saudi Arabia’s Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Al Saud once again presides over the ranking, with an estimated fortune of $22.6 billion, while Joseph Safra occupies second spot with $17.3 billion.
The top 10 this year also hint at the continued strength of family ties, with members of the UAE’s Al Ghurair family and Egypt’s Mansour and Sawiris clans all retaining top spots.
