The Financial Review Rich List 2025 marks the 42nd consecutive year that Australia's top 200 wealthiest individuals by net worth have been ranked, as released by the Australian Financial Review on 30 May 2025.

Leading the list is Gina Rinehart, whose net worth stands at $38.11 billion. At the opposite end, Michael Boyd ranks 200th with a fortune of $747 million, an increase from $718 million recorded in 2024.

Collectively, the net worth of these 200 individuals totals $667.8 billion, reflecting a 6.9% growth compared to the previous year. When the BRW Rich 100 first appeared in 1984, their combined wealth was merely $6.4 billion. Women represent 21% of this year's list, with forty-two women included—slightly up from forty-one in 2024. The compilation also introduces ten newcomers. Notably, seven people have maintained a presence on every list since its inception in 1984: Lindsay Fox, John Gandel, Solomon Lew, Frank Lowy, Alan Rydge, Kerry Stokes, and Harry Triguboff.

Gina Rinehart held the title of Australia's wealthiest individual from 2011 through 2015 and regained that status beginning in 2020. Between 2017 and 2019, Anthony Pratt was ranked as the richest Australian; in 2025 he occupies third place behind Harry Triguboff, who topped the list in 2016.

Notes

• Previously, the combined net worth was listed under Annie and Mike Cannon-Brookes.

  The net worth figures were formerly consolidated as Garry Tieck, Paul Teick, and their families.

  Initially, net worth was attributed to Terry Snow; following his passing in 2024, it was allocated among his spouse, family members, and a philanthropic trust.

  Net worth was originally recorded under Marc Besen; after his death in 2023, it transferred to his children Naomi Milgrom, Carol Schwartz, and Daniel Besen.
