BusinessRe: Dangote Is World's 43rd Richest Man - Forbes by DammySaint(m): 10:47am On Mar 05, 2013
[quote
author=rodeo0070]With a net worth of $16.1bn as of March 2013, the
President, Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, has moved up in the
latest world richest ranking to number 43 from 76 in 2012.

According to the list which was released on Monday by Forbes, Dangote
and the Chairman of Globalom, Dr. Mike Adenuga were the only Nigerians
on the list.

Dangote, 55, however, retained his position as the richest man in Africa
and the richest among manufacturers in the world with a net worth of
$16.1bn.

Adenuga, 59, on the other hand, ranked 269 on the list with a net worth
of $4.7bn.

The world billionaires, list presented Carlos Slim Helu, a Mexican as
the world richest man with a net worth of $73bn, while Bill Gates of
United States came second with a net worth of the $67bn.

Others are Armancio Ortega of Spain ($57bn); Warren Buffet, United
States ($53.5bn); and Larry Ellison of US with $43bn net worth, coming
third, fourth and fifth, respectively.

Forbes said, “To compile net worths, we value individuals’ assets,
including stakes in public and private companies, real estate, yachts,
art and cash – and account for debt.

“We attempt to vet these numbers with all billionaires. Some cooperate;
others don’t. We also consult an array of outside experts in various
fields.”

The past year has been eventful for Dangote. In October, he sold off a
controlling stake in his flour milling company to Tiger Brands of South
Africa and pocketed $190m in cash.

In February, his Dangote Sugar Refineries acquired a 95 per cent stake
in Savannah Sugar in a bid to maintain its dominant position in the
Nigerian sugar industry.

Dangote started building his fortune more than three decades ago when he
began trading in commodities like cement, flour and sugar with a loan
he received from his maternal uncle.

He delved into full production of these items in the early 2000s and
went on to build the Dangote Group, West Africa’s largest
publicly-listed conglomerate, which now owns sugar refineries, salt
processing facilities and Dangote Cement.
