Financial Review Rich List 2025

The Financial Review Rich List 2025 is the 42nd annual survey of the 200 wealthiest people, assessed on the basis of net worth, who are resident in Australia, that was published by the Australian Financial Review on 30 May 2025.

The net worth of the wealthiest individual, Gina Rinehart, was $38.11 billion; while the net worth of the 200th wealthiest individual, Michael Boyd, was $747 million; up from $718 million for the 200th individual in 2024.[1]

The combined wealth of the 200 individuals was calculated as $667.8 bn, an increase of 6.9 per cent on the previous year.[1] When the BRW Rich 100 commenced in 1984, the wealthiest 200 individuals had a combined net worth of $6.4 bn.[2] Forty-two women were included on the 2025 Rich List, representing 21 per cent of the list; an increase from forty-one women in 2024. The 2025 list included ten debutants.[1] Seven individuals appear on the 2025 Rich List and have appeared on every list since first published in 1984 as the BRW Rich 100; including Lindsay Fox, John Gandel, Solomon Lew, Frank Lowy, Alan Rydge, Kerry Stokes, and Harry Triguboff.[1][3][4][5]

Rinehart held the mantle of Australia's wealthiest individual between 2011 and 2015; and has been the wealthiest Australian individual since 2020.[6] From 2017 to 2019, Anthony Pratt was Australia's wealthiest individual, ranked third in the 2025 list, after Harry Triguboff, who was Australia's wealthiest individual in 2016.[7][8]
