Tadashi Yanai, the owner of Fast Retailing and founder of Uniqlo, tops the Forbes list. The 73-year-old businessman is currently worth over $23 billion.

Mr. Takizaki retired 7 years ago but is still an honorary chairman of the company’s Board of directors. Last year, the personal fortune of the 76-year-old businessman plunged by more than $4 billion to almost $21.6 billion. Nevertheless, he has made it to the top 3 of the Forbes ranking.
