Australia’s 2026 Rich List shows the nation’s 200 wealthiest fortunes have surged by $39 billion to a combined $707 billion, with mining magnate Gina Rinehart remaining atop the list for a seventh year at $39 billion. Property developer Harry Triguboff follows at $32.3 billion, Visy’s Anthony Pratt family at $25.2 billion, and former Glencore chief Ivan Glasenberg at $22.4 billion.
