Is Wijnand Pon again the richest automan (m/v) of the Netherlands? Spoiler: yes. But there are more Quote 500 members who make their fortune in the automotive.

As I said, a Pon (#5) also performs in 2015 the list with automannen, although his power again declined: Wijnand has now a paltry €1.7 billion. Maybe only once a new investment manager, as a billionaire, you may actually not happen. The rest of the Ponnetjes also not wrong. Ingrid (#44) is on a comfie 400 million euros. Ben (#61) is there anything under 290 million ekkermannen and Ans (#69, hehe) is there with 260 million was also well-to-do.

We may as Well-boss, Wim van der Leegte (#16) congratulate: he is one of the four people who this year joined the miljardairsclub, Quote put him at €1 billion.

Evert Louwman (Toyota, #18) also goes in the direction of the billion, but there is still just not. Also get keukenboer Ben Mandemakers (#31, €545 million). This is debatable, because the money he earned is not in the automotive industry, but nowadays he vuistdiep in the Van Mossel Group. The other investor in this, Eric Berkhof, scores place 361 €60 million.

Than the other names that we just came into the magazine, names that in one way or another related to the automotive industry. Rolly van Rappard (#64, via the CVC, the owner of the Formula (1) is at 280 million. Bandenboer Job van Vliet (#67) blows a nice game with 265 million euros. Rolf Lauret (#81) of Autobinck Holding stands at 220 million.

Boedelbakken are not only useful, they make you stinking rich. As proved Wiet de Bruijn (#99) with a capacity of 180 million euros. Angel and Ames (#164) is a bit lower with 120 million euros. Europcar boss Leo van Beukering (#286) blows a nice game with 76 million, followed by car dealers Niek and Joop Boss (#329) with 66 million.

The rijkenelite

The allerrijkste Dutchman in the Netherlands, Frits Goldschmeding (Netherlands, 4.7 billion), the London-based Heineken’s daughter Charlene is doing with 9.6 billion double. Bentley-buddy Hans Melchers shoot to place 4 with €2 billion.

Look back to previous editions? That can: 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010 and 2009.
