ANNOUNCEMENT:
As of 2024, the Sy siblings remain the richest in the Philippines, according to Forbes. Their collective net worth stands at $13 billion, primarily derived from their stakes in the SM Group, a diversified conglomerate with significant interests in retail, real estate, and banking. This figure is slightly down from $14.4 billion in 2023, due to a weaker peso.
Enrique Razon Jr., the ports magnate, has moved up to second place with a net worth of $11.1 billion, overtaking real estate tycoon Manuel Villar, who is now third with $10.9 billion. Other notable names in the top ten include Ramon Ang of San Miguel Corporation, Isidro Consunji and his siblings from DMCI Holdings, and Tony Tan Caktiong of Jollibee Foods Corporation (RAPPLER) (Philstar Life) (Forbes ME).
