6. Liliane Bettencourt

Lived: 1922—2017

Nation: France

Peak Wealth/Global GDP: 0.055%

If you’ve ever bought lotion at the Body Shop or applied Maybelline lipstick before leaving the house, you’ve contributed to the fortune of this L’Oreal heiress, whose wealth peaked at $40.7 billion in 2015. She was a principal shareholder in the cosmetics company founded by her father in 1907. Under her control, L’Oreal had acquired other brands, such as Lancôme in 1964, as well as blockbuster products like the fragrance “Polo” by Ralph Lauren in 1985.

7. Yang Huiyan

Lived: 1981—present

Nation: China

Peak Wealth/Global GDP: 0.025%

Many people were hit hard by the economic recession in 2007, but few so dramatically as Yang Huiyan. The Chinese heiress started off with a $16.2 billion fortune from her father, Yang Guoqiang, founder of property developer Country Garden. Following the financial crisis, her net worth plummeted; she’s now worth $5.2 billion. Huiyan has been involved in the family business since she was a teenager and now serves as vice chairman of the board of governance.

Nation: Germany

Peak Wealth/Global GDP: 0.024%

Germany’s richest woman derived most of her $17.4 billion fortune from one of the country’s most lucrative brands: BMW. Klatten inherited a 12.6% stake in the luxury automaker from her late father, Herbert Quandt. Klatten also invests in multiple business ventures, from pharmaceutical companies (she owns 100% of Altana AG, which has about $2 billion in annual sales) to wind power and water tech businesses.

9. Anne Cox Chambers

Lived: 1919—present

Nation: United States

Peak Wealth/Global GDP: 0.021%

Cox Chambers had a stint as an ambassador to Belgium and received France’s Commander of Legion of Honor title in 2009, but her major claim to fame is as a media mogul. The Georgia resident’s fortune comes from her stake in her late father’s Cox Enterprises, which owns news outlets such as the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and the Palm Beach Post. But most of its revenue comes from its telecommunications division, holding one of the nation’s largest cable television providers. Cox Chambers has served as a member of Cox Enterprise’s board of directors and chair of Atlanta Newspapers. In November 2015, the now-96-year-old businesswoman stepped down from the board, distributing her stake—amounting to a fortune of $15.3 billion—to her three heirs.

10. Charlene de Carvalho-Heineken

Peak Wealth/Global GDP: 0.017%

Every time you crack open a Heineken, you’re adding to the fortune of this Dutch brewery tycoon, whose wealth peaked at $12.7 billion in 2016. De Carvalho-Heineken is the only child of Freddy Heineken, who served as CEO of the world’s third-largest brewer from 1971 to 1989. She inherited her 25% stake in Heineken International when her father died in 2002. Without any formal business education, de Carvalho-Heineken was a driving force behind the selection of the company’s current CEO, Jean-Francois van Boxmeer. He’s overseen $30 billion in brewery acquisitions since he took the helm.

国家:美国

财富峰值在全球GDP占比:0.021%

考克斯·钱伯斯曾做过美国驻比利时大使,并在2009年获得了法国荣誉军团勋章,但她之所以闻名于世主要还是因为其传媒大亨的身份。这位佐治亚州女富豪的财产来自于她在考克斯企业的股份。这家企业由她已故父亲创办,拥有包括《亚特兰大宪报》《棕榈滩邮报》在内的多家新闻媒体公司,其大部分赢利来自旗下电视传媒公司,该公司是美国最大有线电视供应商之一。除了考克斯企业董事局成员身份之外,考克斯·钱伯斯还是亚特兰大报业的主席。直到2015年11月,这位时年96岁的女性商业大亨才从董事局卸任,并将她价值153亿美元的股份分给3位继承人。
