Saudi Prince Alwaleed's Net Worth Tumbles 58% to Six-Year Low - Bloomberg

Saudi Prince Alwaleed's Net Worth Tumbles 58% to Six-Year Low - Bloomberg:

The fortune of Saudi Arabia’s richest person, Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Al Saud, has dropped to $15.2 billion, its lowest level since the Bloomberg Billionaires Index began tracking him in April 2012.

The value of his portfolio of public equities, stakes in closely held companies and Saudi real estate fell by $760 million in the first three quarters of the year, according to an emailed document from his private office. The decline was due to “minor adjustments” in the valuation of assets and some disposals, including the sale last month of his stake in U.S. ride-hailing company Lyft Inc. to his investment company, Kingdom Holding Co.

The world’s wealthiest people have, in aggregate, lost 2 percent of their wealth so far this year, or $103 billion, according to the index.
