數據顯示:倫敦成全球億萬富翁最多城市
London has more billionaires -- measured in pounds sterling -- than any other city in the world, according to The Sunday Times newspaper's Rich List 2016.
英國《星期日泰晤士報》近日公佈的2016年富豪榜顯示，以英鎊計算，倫敦是全球億萬富翁最多的城市。Some of the richest tycoons in Britain have lost vast chunks of their fortunes because of a retail slump, sinking oil prices and the steel industry crisis, the paper said.
該報稱，零售市場低迷、油價下跌以及鋼鐵業危機導致英國一些最富有的大亨的財富大幅縮水。Nevertheless, the overall fortune of the 1,000 wealthiest people in Britain was higher this year -- and the country boasts 120 sterling billionaires, a figure beaten only by the United States (378) and China (193), the paper said.
儘管如此，英國倫敦1000名最富裕者的總資產仍比去年有所增加。該報道指出，英國的億萬英鎊富翁共有120位，這一數字僅次於美國的378位和中國的193位。
And it said there were more sterling billionaires in London (77) than any other city, ahead of New York (61), San Francisco (57) and Hong Kong (49).
報道指出，倫敦共有77位億萬富翁，其次爲紐約的61位、舊金山的57爲和香港的49位。
Publicity-shy brothers David and Simon Reuben topped the list this year, with a fortune of 13.1 billion pounds, up 3.4 billion pounds on last year.
愛拋頭露面的戴維·魯本和西蒙·魯本兄弟今年榮登榜首，擁有財產總值131億英鎊，比去年多34億英鎊。The Reubens, born in Mumbai to an Iraqi Jewish family, own London property and data centre operator Global Switch. They are just ahead of the industrialist brothers Sri and Gopi Hinduja with 13 billion pounds, a figure unchanged from last year, and investor Len Blavatnik with 11.6 billion pounds, down 1.6 billion pounds.
魯本兄弟初上在孟買的一個伊拉克猶太家庭，擁有倫敦房地產及數據中心Global Switch。排在第二位的是辛杜佳兄弟，這對兄弟的財產總值爲130億英鎊，相比去年沒有發生變化。投資人萊恩·布拉瓦特尼克的財產總值爲116億英鎊，相比去年減少了16億英鎊。Steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal, who topped the list in 2008 with a Rich List record of 27.7 billion pounds, is down to 11th place with 7.1 billion pounds, losing 2.1 billion pounds last year.

The list does not count the 11.5 billion pounds Crown Estate property portfolio or the 10 billion pounds Royal Collection of art and jewellery as her personal wealth.
