Already Europe’s richest man, the 80-year-old
– whose glamorous daughter Marta is
expected to take over management of the
business – now tops the global list.
Forbes reported that Ortega became the
world’s richest man on Wednesday when
Inditex shares went up 2.5 per cent.
He now has a larger net worth than US
investor Warren Buffett and Amazon founder
Jeff Bezos.
