Mohammed Al-Amoudi’s fortune rises $2.2 billion after Svenska sale, pushing his net worth toward $8 billion.
The $1 billion rebound not only brought him back onto the list but pushed him up to 455th place.
Al-Amoudi’s net worth has jumped from $9.12 billion on April 26 to $9.31 billion as of this report. This translates to an average daily gain of $10 million since April 26.
This follows a $320-million gain in Al-Amoudi’s net worth between March 28 and April 12.
Al-Amoudi derives a significant portion of his wealth from his stake in Preem, which surged from $3.74 billion on Jan. 1 to $3.88 billion recently.
The recent uptick in his fortune is mainly credited to the strong performance of his broad industrial investments in Sweden, Saudi Arabia, and Ethiopia.
