The total wealth of the top 100 richest Ukrainians decreased by one fourth in the past year to $20 billion, Forbes Ukraine has reported.
The decline of raw material prices, fall in sales of chemical products, slump in the engineering sector, closure of enterprises in the Anti-Terrorist Operation (ATO) zone and the loss of the Russian sales market contributed to the decrease.
The owner of SCM Rinat Akhmetov with $2.3 billion tops the list. Co-owners of PrivatBank Ihor Kolomoisky and Hennadiy Boholiubov share the second position (with $1.3 billion each).
The owner of EastOne investment and consulting group and Interpipe Corporation Victor Pinchuk is fourth with $1.2 billion. Majority shareholder in MHP agricultural holding Yuriy Kosiuk is fifth with a fortune estimated at $1 billion.
The owner of Roshen Corporation and International Investment Bank, beneficiary of Ukrprominvest-Agro and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko is the sixth wealthiest Ukrainian with a fortune estimated at $858 million.
