The Bloomberg Billionaires Index is a daily ranking of the world’s 500 richest individuals, updated every market day. It offers a fascinating look at global wealth, showing how fortunes rise and fall with stock prices, investments, and business performance.

Unlike Forbes’ annual list, Bloomberg’s index is updated in real time, reflecting changes in net worth based on market movements and company valuations. It covers billionaires from across industries — technology, finance, retail, energy, and more — offering insights into how wealth is created and distributed worldwide.

Here is list of the top 15 of the world’s 500 richest individuals.

For investors and analysts, the Index is more than a list of names; it’s a barometer of global financial trends. Shifts in the rankings often mirror broader market themes — such as tech booms, commodity cycles, or emerging market growth.

Whether you’re studying markets or just curious about who tops the charts, the Bloomberg Billionaires Index provides a daily snapshot of global wealth and power.
