A German billionaire refers to an individual from Germany who has a net worth of at least one billion US dollars. These billionaires typically have accumulated their wealth through various means, including entrepreneurship, inheritance, investments, and other business ventures.
Some notable German billionaires as of my last update in 2022 include:
- Dieter Schwarz: Founder and owner of the Schwarz-Gruppe, which operates the Lidl and Kaufland supermarket chains.
- Georg Schaeffler: Co-owner of Schaeffler Group, a major manufacturer of ball bearings and machine components.
- Stefan Quandt: Major shareholder in BMW, through his holding company, and heir to the BMW fortune.
- Susanne Klatten: Another major shareholder in BMW and heiress to the Altana AG chemicals company.
It's worth noting that the list of German billionaires can change over time due to fluctuations in net worth, business successes or failures, and other factors.
