SINGAPORE (November 6, 2025) – The collective net worth of tycoons on the 2025 Forbes list of China’s 100 Richest rose US$320 billion to $1.35 trillion, from $1.03 trillion last year. The complete list can be found here and in the November issue of Forbes Asia.

China’s stock markets have been on a roll, fueled by the AI boom and hopes of more stimulus measures by the Chinese government to combat a sluggish economy and the fallout of a trade war with the U.S. The benchmark CSI 300 index rose 15% since fortunes were last measured a year ago. Overall, two-thirds of those on the list this year are wealthier.
