"The richest people on Earth are not immune to the coronavirus. As the pandemic tightened its grip on Europe and America, global equity markets imploded, tanking many fortunes," says Forbes on its website as it releases the Forbes Billionaires 2020 list.
Further, it said that, While finalizing the list, as of March 18, Forbes counted 2,095 billionaires, 58 fewer than a year ago and 226 fewer than just 12 days earlier, when they initially calculated these net worths. "Of the billionaires who remain, 51% are poorer than they were last year. In raw terms, the world’s billionaires are worth $8 trillion, down $700 billion from 2019," said Forbes on its website.
