Masan chairman back on Forbes billionaires list
VOV.VN - Nguyen Dang Quang, founder of Masan Group, has reappeared on Forbes’ list of billionaires after previously dropping out due to a fall in his assets.
Quang, who serves as chairman of the food company, is ranked 2,526th among real time billionaires, which was updated by the financial magazine on January 4, with a net worth of US$1 billion.
The data was duly updated based on changes occurring in the price of the firm’s shares on the stock exchange, which accounts for a majority of his assets.
