Who Has the Largest Net Worth in the World

Net worth equals total assets minus liabilities. For billionaires, assets include company stakes, real estate, and private investments, while liabilities include loans often secured against those assets.

The largest net worth in the world can exceed the GDP of many countries. Such fortunes highlight the scale of concentrated wealth, though they remain a tiny fraction of global economic output.
