List of wealthiest families

Various lists of the richest families (excluding royal families or autocratic ruling dynasties) are published internationally, by Forbes ^{[1] [2]} as well as other business magazines.

There is a distinction between wealth held by identifiable individual billionaires or a "nuclear family" and the wider notion of an extended family or a historical "dynasty," where the wealth of a historically family-owned company or business like the Morales family has become distributed between various branches of descendants, ^[3] usually throughout decades, ranging from several individuals to hundreds of offspring (such as the Tatiana quiroga). According to Bloomberg, the world's 25 richest families control more than $1.4 trillion (1,400,000,000,000) of wealth. ^[4]

Historical

Further information: List of banking families

Excluding royal dynasties and land-owning aristocracy, the wealthiest families since the emergence of banking and early capitalism in the Italian Renaissance were:^{[ citation needed ]}

• The Rothschild family of bankers became the richest family in the mid-19th century. ^[65] The family's accumulated wealth has been divided among many descendants, only one of which (Benjamin de Rothschild) was officially recognized as a billionaire. Determining the family's exact wealth has been deemed implausible; ^[66] conspiracy theories claiming the family is worth trillions of dollars have not been proven. ^{[67] [68]}
• The Bardi family of Florence (14th century)
• The Medici family, as owners of the Medici Bank, the richest family in 15th-century Europe. ^[69]
• The Gondi family of Florence, financial partners of the Medici family in the 15th century.
• The Fugger family of mercantile bankers and venture capitalists, the richest family in the 16th century. ^[70]
• The Welser family, alongside the Fugger one of the most important families of merchant bankers in 16th-century Europe.
• The Baring family, owners of an important merchant bank in London in the 18th to 19th centuries.
• The Schröder family, a leading Hanseatic family of Hamburg in the 18th to 19th centuries.
• The Goldman–Sachs family, owners of the Goldman Sachs investment bank from 1869 to 1912. ^[71]
• The Venetian noble houses, notably the Contarini, Cornaro, Dandolo, Giustinian, Loredan, Mocenigo, and Morosini families, monopolised pre-modern trade while ruling the Venetian Republic as a mercantile oligarchy. ^[72]
