This compilation ranks Russian billionaires according to their estimated annual net worth and assets as reported by the American business publication Forbes. There are 83 individuals whose fortunes surpass the $1 billion mark.

Methodology

According to Forbes' 2012 disclosure, the World's Billionaires list is assembled using information gathered by more than 50 journalists operating in 16 countries. These reporters conduct interviews with the billionaires themselves, their staff, legal representatives, and market analysts, while monitoring transactions to approximate net worth. Valuations include holdings in publicly traded and privately owned companies, luxury yachts, artwork, and real estate assets. Public equity stakes are assessed based on market values approximately one month prior to the list's release; for instance, the 2022 rankings use stock prices as of March 11, 2022. Privately owned enterprises are appraised using current price-to-sales or price-to-earnings multiples. Established liabilities are deducted to derive final estimates expressed in US dollars. Due to market volatility, actual wealth figures and rankings may differ at the time of publication.

Forbes does not account for wealth held collectively by multigenerational families but may aggregate couples or siblings when ownership is indistinct. Net worth calculations are performed on an individual basis; assets linked to a living person may include those of immediate family members. Monarchs and autocrats whose wealth depends on their official positions are excluded from the list.
