Colombian billionaire Jaime Gilinski has climbed to No. 54 on Bloomberg's ranking of the world's wealthiest individuals, following French luxury tycoon Bernard Arnault's departure from the top 10. Arnault's net worth has plummeted by US$65 billion this year, dropping him to US$143 billion and leaving him as the 11th wealthiest person globally. For the first time since 2017, Arnault's fortune has fallen below the threshold for the top 10, with Warren Buffett now occupying the 10th spot.
Gilinski's rise to the 54th position marks him as the highest-ranked Colombian in Bloomberg's ranking, with his wealth derived from banking and investments beyond traditional financial services. Other Colombian billionaires on the list include Alejandro Santo Domingo at No. 135, Nubank founder David Velez at No. 221, and banker Luis Carlos Sarmiento at No. 250.
These fortunes represent diverse paths to wealth, with Santo Domingo's portfolio diversified through investments, Velez's success in the digital banking sector, and Sarmiento's accumulation through banking and infrastructure ventures.
