The Financial Review Rich List 2022 marks the 39th edition of the annual ranking featuring the 200 most affluent individuals residing in Australia. This compilation was released by the Australian Financial Review on 26 May 2022.
Topping the list was Gina Rinehart, whose net assets were valued at $34.02 billion. At the other end, the 200th position was held by Graham & Jude Turner with a fortune of $629 million, an increase from $590 million reported in 2021. Collectively, the total wealth of all 200 individuals reached $554.9 billion, reflecting a growth of $75.3 billion compared to the previous year. This is a significant rise from the initial combined wealth of $6.4 billion when the BRW Rich 200 was first published in 1984. Women accounted for thirty-seven members, representing 18.5 percent of the list, which is slightly lower than the thirty-nine women (19.5 percent) featured in 2021. The list also welcomed thirteen newcomers.
Gina Rinehart has been Australia's richest person during the periods from 2011 to 2015 and again in both 2020 and 2021. In contrast, Anthony Pratt secured the leading position from 2017 through 2019 and was ranked fifth in the 2022 edition. Meanwhile, Harry Triguboff, who was Australia's wealthiest individual in 2016, placed sixth in this year's Rich List.
