The 15 richest people from Hong Kong in the Bloomberg Billionaires Index and Forbes Billionaires List are collectively worth more than $200 billion. Some of the billionaires occupying the top rank are self-made and built their fortunes through real estate and investment holding companies, like Li Ka-Shing who founded CK Hutchison Holdings. Others inherited wealth from their families, like Lee Man Tat, whose grandfather is credited with having invented oyster sauce.
Multiple members of the Kwok family, Asia's second-richest family and Hong Kong's richest family, have secured a place in this list.
