Briefly

Lower rice yield PALAY production in Northern Mindanao went down in the fourth quarter of 2016 by 3.45 percent to 226,254 metric tons compared to the same period in 2015. A report released by the National Economic and Development Authority (Neda) Wednesday stated that the movement of planting schedule due to inadequate and delayed release of irrigation water primarily contributed to the decreased yield in most of the provinces. As a result, rice sufficiency levels in the region dropped 5.6 percentage points lower than the sufficiency levels of the same quarter in 2015. This was estimated to sustain the region for only 54 days with its daily rice consumption requirement of around 28,160 bags.

14 Filipino tycoons among world’s richest FOURTEEN Filipino tycoons, led by mall-mogul Henry Sy Sr., made it to Forbes’ 31st annual ranking of the World’s Billionaires, joining the ranks of US President Donald Trump, Bill Gates, and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg. With a total net worth of $12.7 billion, Sy placed highest among Filipinos in the list at No. 94. Although his global ranking dropped by three places in 2017, Sy

still remains the richest man in the Philippines. However, Sy’s net worth dropped from $12.9 billion last year due to global market volatility as well as strengthening of the US dollar. Sy, whose vast business empire includes retailing, real estate, hospitality, banking, mining, education and healthcare services, was born in Xiamen, China, in 1924 and migrated to the

Philippines to become the nation’s Retail King. Sy family’s holding firm, SM Investments Corporation (SMIC), has consistently been cited as one of the Philippines best-managed companies. The Chinese businessman’s eldest daughter Teresita Sy Coson was also one of Asia’s most powerful businesswomen. Meanwhile, the country’s second richest person is richest/PAGE 11

LIFE’S INSPIRATIONS: “… For those who eat and drink without discerning the body of Christ eat and drink judgment on themselves. That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep…” (1 Corinthians 11:29-30, the Holy Bible). -ooo FAST FOOD CAN KILL YOU! Are you still eating fast food---or food sold in fast food chains? B e warned. Or, b etter yet, stop eating fast food, stop eating in fast food chains. Why? Because, according to medical experts, these kinds of food could kill you by giving you hypertension, or a dangerous spike in your blood pressure. In a media report, doctors f rom t he Inte r nat iona l Society of Hypertension (ISH) and its Philippine affiliate, the Philippine Society of Hypertension (PSH), claimed that fast food restaurants usually sell “high fat and high salt food” which cause essential hypertension, even among very young children. Dr. R amon C ast i l lo, a past president of PSH and a member of the ISH, explained that whose who have hypertension are like

Going Through Hot Water Think a minute…“A tea bag isn’t worth much until it’s been through some hot water.” There’s a saying in boxing: “Everybody’s got a plan—until they’ve been hit!” Sooner or later, life is going to hit and knock you down. Whether you get back up or not is your choice. Almost all people’s successes are built on their former failures. A very successful man was asked if he had ever failed. He answered: “Only in life.” The fact is, even after we’ve been knocked down we can still use our past mistakes and failures to build a bridge to our success. You know that you’re the only one who can kill your dream by quitting. Remember that just falling in the water is not what drowns you; it’s staying down there that does. Just like kites fly high because the wind pushes against them, so problems that oppose you can actually help you succeed, if you choose to believe and use them that way. There was a man who was the only survivor from a shipwreck. He drifted to an uninhabited island where he built a hut for his shelter. One evening after he returned from searching for food, he found his little

When the captain came on shore he told the man: “We saw your smoke signal so we came to rescue you.” Everything this man owned and valued in his hut had to be destroyed before he could be saved. Sometimes our Maker even uses our pain to get our attention, so we can learn our most important lessons for living well and wisely. So why not ask Jesus Christ to take charge and lead you through the hot water you’re in now?

One such direction is found in 1 C orinthians 11:23-30. In gist, these Bible verses are telling us that whenever we eat or drink, we should always remember the body and blood of Jesus, our God and Savior who is God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, by which we have been forgiven, the penalties due for our sins paid for, and our eternal life in Paradise guaranteed.

In the Philippines, for instance, medical records indicate that one in every Filipino has hypertension, or debilitating high blood pressure. This is the reason why, medical experts agree, there is a need for our countrymen to change their eating habits by avoiding too much salt, too much fat, too many calories. In addition, there must also be a change of lifestyle--one that is marked by physical inactivity at pres ent, to one t hat is p hy s i c a l l y a c t i v e .

We need to restore the tr ue face of confession w h o s e pu bl i c i m age i s ge tt i ng ve r y d i stor te d. This is unfortunate because confession actually plays an indispensable role in a believer’s life. It’s where Christian life is recovered, or at least strengthened. Of course, confession has to be understood as a doctrine of faith. One misses the truth right at the source if he considers it as just one more practice, religious but mainly social, its nature determined more by its practical aspects than by that it was instituted by Christ and taught and promoted by the Church. This is actually our main problem these days. Many believers have a watered down attitude toward faith and religion, and of course toward the Church and the sacraments. They rely more on their reason rather than of faith to lead them in their Christian life. They believe and they follow only when they understand things and see them useful in some way. Faith is subordinated to our reason. Again, we have to take our faith s eriously and

“

live it as consistently as possible. We don’t flaunt it when it is politically correct, and junk it when it is inconvenient. And this seriousness in our faith should also be shown in our attitude toward confession. As a sacrament, confession is not just a human institution. Though it uses human instruments, it is Christ to whom one approaches and from whom one asks and obtains forgiveness in confession. Though it takes only a few minutes, the truth is that the whole drama of Christ assuming our sins, dying to them and rising from them, victorious over sin and death, and expressing the most exquisite version of love in his mercy for us, takes place there. This is what happens in confession if understood and done well. We need to expand our mind and h e ar t t o a c c om m o d at e this tremendous reality of confession as taught to us by our Christian faith. If we today pride ourselves of having gone nuclear, of having covered a v a s t are a of wor l d ly knowledge, then we should

do something similar with respect to truths of faith. We cannot remain in the kindergarten level in our appreciation and practice of confession, for example. Of course, all parties should do their best here. The priests and the penitents should play their respective parts well. Pope Emeritus Benedict once s ai d t hat confe ssi on is where that intimate and life-changing “dialogue of salvation” transpires. Priests should realize that as confessors they l e n d t h e i r f a c u lt i e s t o C h r i s t w h o i s t h e on e who forgives sins. They should be truly identified with him, effectively and af fectively. Thus, theywe-should be competent and truly holy, because only in this way can we dispense God’s mercy and effect inner healing in the penitents. This is, of course, a very dy namic, ne ver-ending effort, with its ups and downs, twists and turns. But as long as t here is determined effort to be f ait h f u l t o C h r i s t , t h e sacrament can be done as it should be in spite of our

Fr. Roy Cimagala defects and miseries. Hearing confessions is a very privileged moment for any priest. That’s where he enters into the inmost part of a person, that part where one is supposed to face Christ to ask for the most important thing in life-God’s mercy. We can need many and endless things, but in the end what we most need is none other than God’s mercy. Priests should do their part really well. They have to know how to be one and at the same time a father, a friend, a judge, and doctor. They must know how to advise as well as to handle the many intricacies of the internal forum. roycimagala@gmail.com

EAL estate giant Ayala Land Inc. (ALI) plans to spend P16 billion to build new malls over the next three years as it continues to build up its recurring income business, riding the country’s robust economic growth. “ We a r e e x p a n d i n g aggressively . . . We will be tripling our size in three years. By 2020, we will have at least 3.2 million in gross leasable area for Ayala malls,” AC Legarda, Senior Division Manager of ALI’s Commercial Business Group, said in an interview. By the end of 2017, Legarda said the property

firm expects to register a total of 1.8 million square meters (sqm) of gross leasable space in its malls segment. She noted ALI planned to complete six shopping centers this year with a total leasable space of 198,000 square meters. These include the Ayala Malls in Vertis North in the Quezon City Central Business District; Marikina Heights; Cloverleaf in Balintawak, Quezon City; One Bonifacio High Street in Bonifacio Global City (BGC); Ayala Malls Feliz in Cainta; and Ayala Malls Southville in Las Pinas. These are in addition to Ayala Malls The 30th which

opened in January of this year The company targets to launch 11 new shopping malls next year, bringing total expected GLA by the end of 2018 at two million square meters. Expansion for next year includes Bacolod, Cebu, Makati and Bay Area in Paranaque. “The economy is ready, we are very ripe, we are in our sweetest spot now. All the other brands would like to come in, the numbers are doing very well. And we see the market growing so we would like to grow with the market,” she added.

Atlas Mining net loss widens in 2016 ATLAS Consolidated and Mining Corp. incurred a P879-million net loss in 2016, 8% higher than the P814-million loss recorded in the prior year. In a regulatory filing on Wednesday, the mining firm said excluding a onetime provision for loss on disputed tax credits, its underlying net loss stood at P384 million, a 53% improvement from the 2015 figure.

“The company realized both higher revenues and l owe r op e r at i ng c o s t s , benefitting from an ongoing cost and efficiency program,” Atlas Mining said. Revenues rose 7% to P12.080 billion year on year, which was attributed to “the increase in copper volume shipped and higher gold revenues that tempered the impact of lower copper prices.” Copper revenue rose

slightly by 2%, as shipments of copp er concent rates increased by 4% to 176,130 dr y metric tons (DMT), while copper prices declined 10% annually to an average of $2.21 per pound. Gold revenue climbed 34% as volume shipped went up by 4,879 ounces to 32,211 ounces and average prices during the period increased to $1,241 per ounce from $1,154 per ounce. mining/PAGE 11

Legarda also attributed the growing business process outsourcing (BPO) market and the overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) remittances driving the growth of retail spaces. ”We are very excited about the expansion, we would like to reach more markets. We are not only concentrating in Metro Manila, we are also doing a lot in the provincial areas,” she added. ayala/PAGE 11

VISTA LAND & Lifescapes, Inc. sustained a double-digit growth in earnings last year, as its leasing operations expanded and contributed more while its residential business slowed on weaker demand f rom overs e as Filipinos.

CELEBRATE EARTH HOUR AT SM CITY CAGAYAN DE ORO

On March 25, from 8:30pm to 9:30pm, SM City Cagayan de Oro will once more switch off the lights for Earth Hour 2017. This year’s theme “Shine a Light on Climate Action,” seeks to spark awareness and inspire societies to direct its efforts towards combatting global warming. It is a

community-empowering campaign that leverages on the power of the youth to make a difference in the world. SM’s partners with the same advocacy are expected to attend to take a stand against the indiscriminate threat of global warming and make a commitment

to a low-carbon lifestyle by switching off the lights. SM City Cagayan de Oro has been observing the Earth Hour since 2008. Along with the other SM malls nationwide, it has committed to not only observing the one-hour event but also join the movement.

G20 jointly fighting bank sector hacking

HE world’s biggest economies will ple dge to jointly f ig ht c y b er attacks on the global banking system, one of the biggest coordinated efforts yet to protect lenders since an $81 million heist of the Bangladesh central bank’s account last year. Meeting in the German re s or t tow n of B a d e n Baden, G20 finance chiefs will agree to fight attacks regardless of their origin and promise cross-border cooperation to maintain financial stability, according to a draft document seen by Reuters. “We will promote the resilience of financial services and institutions in G20 jurisdictions against

malicious use of information and communication technologies, including from countries outside the G20,” it said. However, it dropped an earlier reference for enhanced security requirements for financial services. Cy ber crime became a top pr i or it y af te r an e l a b or at e h e i s t on t h e Bangladesh central b a n k’s a c c o u n t a t t h e Federal Reserve Bank of Ne w York l ast ye ar, an unprecedented theft that exposed the vulnerabilities of the system. The agreement comes just days after the Un i t e d S t at e s c h a r g e d two intelligence agents from Russia, another G 2 0 m e m b e r, w i t h

masterminding the 2014 theft of 500 million Yahoo accounts. The indictment was the first time US authorities have criminally charged Russian spies for c yber of f e n c e s i n c lu d i n g f or computer fraud, economic espionage, theft of trade secrets, and wire fraud. The charges came amid a swirl of controversies relating to alleged Kremlinbacked hacking of the 2016 US presidential election and possible links between Russian figures and associates of U.S. President Donald Trump. Attacks through SWIFT In the banking world, attacks through the global SWIFT bank transfer system have continued to increase with the network

recording a “meaningful” number of attacks with about a fifth of them resulting in stolen funds since the Bangladesh heist, the firm said late last year. In other highly publicized attacks, retailer Tesco Plc’s banking arm said 2.5 million pounds ($3 million) had been stolen from 9,000 customers last year while hackers also stole more than 2 billion rubles ($34 million) from correspondent accounts at t h e Ru s s i a n c e nt r a l bank and from accounts in commercial banks. The European Union is considering testing banks’ defenses against cyber attacks with concerns growing about the industry’s vulnerability to hacking.

PHL banks told to scale up for regional banking integration PHILIPPINE BANKS should start positioning t hems elves in ter ms of capital and scale as the countr y moves closer to regional banking i nte g r at i on , w it h more foreign lenders expected to venture into the country in the coming years, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) chief said. BSP Governor Amando M. Tetangco, Jr. asked local banks to craft concrete plans and brace themselves for increased competition, as the Association of Southeast Asian Nations ( A SE A N ) n ow pu r s u e s integration in the financial and banking channels. The ASEAN Banking Integ rat ion Frame work (ABIF) was first endorsed in December 2014, and seeks to allow dulyidentified qualified ASEAN banks (QABs) to “operate f reely” across membereconomies in the region. “ This is where the Philippines can set specific targets for increased market share in the region... ABIF is now unfolding -- it provides us with opportunities. The strategic issue therefore is how you will now operate given that regional

integration is upon us,” Mr. Tetangco said in a recent speech before the national convention of the Bankers Institute of the Philippines in Tagaytay City. One route which may b e pu rsu e d is to apply as a QAB, which allows a l e n d e r t o op e r at e i n bigger markets but will have to face “new aspects of competition, different market conditions, and differences in capital requirements,” the central bank chief said. Ahead of the 2020 integration, the ABIF eyes that the Philippines alongside members of the ASEAN-5 -- Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand -- should have at least one bilateral deal signed by 2018 before a full integration two years later. In Ma rc h 2 0 1 6 , t h e B SP s i g n e d a bi l at e r a l agreement with the Bank Negara Malaysia to mark its f irst deal under the A B I F, w h i c h s e e k s t o accept three QABs from one country to operate in the other jurisdiction. Two more agreements are expected to be signed “as early as next month,” Mr. Tetangco said. The BSP

has been in discussions wit h of f icia ls f rom t he Bank of Thailand and Otoritas Jasa Keuangan of Indonesia, the BSP official previously disclosed. Apart from the bilateral d e a l s , M r. Te t a n g c o earlier said at least six more foreign lenders are in various stages of talks with the central bank as they look to venture into the Philippine market. If realized, this would add to nine foreign lenders who have set up shop in the country over the last two years after Republic Act 10641 liberalized the banking sector. M r. Te t a n g c o s a i d t h e P h i l i p p i n e s’ s o l i d macroeconomic footing and sound banking system are attracting more players.

Those not looking to scale up as QABs still need to keep a “good competitive strateg y” in the face of heightened competition, Mr. Tetangco added. “A B I F m a k e s i t

imperative that you improve your competitiveness by l ow e r i n g o p e r at i n g costs, increasing product and service innovations, an d i mprov i ng s e r v i c e quality. This requires more investments in technology and training. Ultimately, this needs more capital and scale to thrive,” the BSP chief also said. “Preferring the status quo will be a competitive disadvantage.” There are 613 b an ks op erat ing in t he P h i l ippi n e s a s of e n d September, according to central bank data. Of the number, 41 are universal and commercial banks, 64 are thrift banks, and 508 are rural and cooperative banks. To be named as a QAB, lenders must secure the endorsement of regulators in its home country and be accepted by offshore authorities where it wants to set up operations. Based on regional data, ASEAN has a population base of 629 million, with more than a third aged below 20. It is also the third fastest-growing economy in the world next to China and India, according to the ASEAN Secretariat.

BSP: Domestic liquidity remains enough for PHL’s requirements A RANKING official of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) on Wednesday assured that domestic liquidity remains high despite the decline in tenders on the central bank’s longer-tenor term deposit facility (TDF). During Wednes day’s T DF au c t i on , bi d s for the 28-day TDF reached PHP140.76 billion, lower than the PHP150 billion offering and last week’s PHP176.89 billion. This resulted in a drop

in this tenor’s bid coverage ratio to 0.9384 from 1.1793 last March 15. On the other hand, bids for the seven-day facility reached PHP39.18 billion, higher than the PHP30 billion offering but lower than last week’s PHP41.13 billion tenders. BSP Deputy Governor Diwa Guinigundo traced t h e pre fe re n c e for t he shorter-dated TDF to the market’s “positioning for any opportunistic short-

term proposition”. “This is the reason why, despite the increase in bid to coverage ratio for the sevenday TDF, weighted interest rate stood at a higher level of 2.52 percent,” he said in a text message. This week, the weighted average accepted yield stood between 2.9873 percent for the seven-day facility and 3.3028 percent for the 28day TDF. Guinigundo p ointed out that if banks feel the

ne e d to i nc re as e t he i r liquidity positions to cater to their clients’ needs, they can easily pull out their placements with the central bank. ”Should there be actual liquidity tightening, all that the banks have to do is to withdraw from the liquidity facilities of the BSP to fund loans, investments, foreign exchange purchases and even public spending on power and infrastructure,” he added.

mostly of retail spaces within its malls (80%) and offices catering to business process outsourcing locators (20%). “Reasonably, you can expect that the leasing business will grow easily by double digits this year in terms of share in revenues, net income and EBITDA. It should be at a higher percentage than last year,” Mr. Villar said. The company’s real estate sales, on the other hand, turned out flattish. Revenues from the business rose 2% to P25.03 billion from P24.50 billion, as demand from Filipinos working in the Middle East slowed down. In 2015, Vista L and registered a 10% increase in real estate sales from P22.32 billion. The overall share of overseas Filipinos in the residential sales of Vista Land failed to rise above 50% when it settled between 50% and 60% in previous years.

“In terms of demand from overseas Filipinos in Middle East, I think we’re affected by what happened in 2016 in terms of the oil price and other uncertainties. You see that sales growth in our residential was slower than in 2015 and a large part of that is because of that,” Mr. Villar said. “ We’r e h o p i n g t h a t weakness does not extend to this year. We are cautiously optimistic that this year will be better. Again, I think it’s just temporary,” he added. Ve r t i c a l r e s i d e nt i a l proj e c ts, in p ar t ic u lar, delivered less revenue last year. Its share shrank to 8% from 13% partly because the recognition of revenues depends on the progress of the developments. “I expect that percentage to be higher next year, however, we’re not relying on condominium sales to be the main growth driver of our business. Definitely it will

be over 10% of residential revenues over the long term,” Mr. Villar noted. Vista Land launched 29 projects, including four mid-rise buildings, with an estimated value of about P26.2 billion in 2016. It plans to launch at least 30 more projects with a cumulative sales value of more than P30 billion within the year. T h e c omp any l o o k s to invest P35 billion for the development of the additional retail spaces, offices and residences this year. It incurred P30.9 billion in capital expenditures and working capital in 2016. “We are confident in the company’s prospects for 2017, especially on the leasing side which provides a sig nif icant s ource of recurring income in addition to our core and stable enduser business,” Vista Land Chairman Manuel B. Villar, Jr. said in a statement.

billion. The segment widened its contribution to 20% from 13% of consolidated net income; 26% from 18% of EBITDA; and 15% from 10% of revenues. The company had 17 malls, 56 commercial centers and four offices at end 2016. In terms of gross floor area, its portfolio of leasable properties expanded to 882,009 square meters (sq.m.) from 631,073 sq.m. following the acquisition of Starmalls, Inc. in November 2015. Vista Land intends to further expand its portfolio of leasable properties to 1 million sq.m. toward the year end and to 1.3 million sq.m. by end 2018. It has identified 100 more locations covering 600 hectares in existing developments for commercial projects. The portfolio will consist

ownership of the cargoes. “Initially, the BOC tried to wait for other cargoes that might be consigned to other companies here since there were reports that the hot cargoes would be delivered in 65 container vans,” a BOC official here said. However, no other cargoes arrived until the BOC decides to open the container van Wednesday, the official said. He said that the BOC was aler ted by foreign counterpar ts about the contraband when it left the port of Singapore bound for the Philippines last year. Raval said that the BOC intelligence group came to Cagayan De Oro City to validate the information, which turned out to be positive. (PNA)

government-to-government project will be undertaken by the Philippines with the support of the Chinese government but said the latter is very aggressive in pursuing it. B ut a pre s s re l e a s e issued by Department of Finance (DOF) Saturday said Finance Secretary Carlos G. Dominguez III and China Commerce Vice Minister Fu Z iying, who is also China’s International Trade Representative, formalized the agreement on the conduct of preliminary feasibility studies for the proposed Davao City Expressway and the Panay-Guimaras-Negros Island Bridges Project. Cortez said the 23.3-km expressway project will be constructed above ground and will be implemented in three phases. The first phase will cover Carlos P. Garcia National Highway, Maa, Talomo, and Sta. Ana Wharf; second phase will include Carlos P. Garcia National Highway, Maa, Talomo, Panacan; and third phase, Carlos P. Garcia National Highway, Maa, Talomo, Bangkal. These routes are just initial because the final routes will be based on the feasibility study that will be undertaken, Cortez said. He said the objective of this latest infrastructure project is to decongest traffic within Davao City by connecting its port to the outer part of the city. Cortez added it w i l l a l s o “c ompl e me nt ongoing, committed, and proposed projects for further enhancement and improvement of access that will encourage an increase i n e c onom i c a c t iv it i e s and productivity along its influence areas.” He said that the City G ov e r n m e nt of D av a o will play a coordinative role in this project – that is, to settle the properties and businesses that will be affected and expropriated as the construction of this project will commence. “It will shorten the travel time of people if their usual

travel route plan is between north and south of the city,” he said. Na t i o n a l E c o n o m i c Development Authority (NEDA) Director General Ernesto Pernia and Fu Ziying, China International Trade Representative and Vice Minister of Commerce, signed the six-year development program that aimed to “steer and promote stable and orderly development of economic cooperation, enlarge the scope and enhance the level of cooperation, and drive sustainable and inclusive socio-economic development in both countries.” Vice Minister Fu and Chinese Vice Premier Wang Yang were in Davao City for a four-day visit and met with some of the cabinet officials of President Rodrigo R. Duterte on Friday, among Dominguez, Pernia, Budget Secretary Benjamin Diokno, and Transportation Secretary Arthur Tugade. In that meeting, the officials from China and the countr y’s economic managers discussed the recent economic developments in the country, the recently approved Philippine Development Plan (PDP) 2017 to 2022, and updates on bilateral cooperation in areas of infrastructure, trade, investments, agriculture, f i s h e r y, t o u r i s m , a n d f i n a n c i n g c o o p e r at i o n between Philippines and China. Also, China gave the Philippines $91-million worth of grant, which includes a $1-million donation for the earthquake-hit province of Surigao; a $75-million grant for the construction of the Binondo-Intramuros and the Estrella-Pantaleon bridges across the Pasig Rive; and the ongoing $15-million financing provided under the anti-illegal drugs and law enforcement security co op erat ion ag re ement signed last year between the two countries during President Duterte’s state visit to China October last year.

She said the city may need more hotels in view of the declaration of President Xi Jinping of China to bring two million Chinese tourists to the Philippines this year. The tourism office has yet to release the latest tourist arrivals in the city but the Chinese have been among the top consistent visitors. “When Chinese come by the thousand, imagine how many rooms would be needed, and at the rate our conventions are going right now. But that’s a very happy problem for us,” she said. In an email sent on Tu e s d a y, D a v a o C i t y Investment Promotions Center head Lemuel Ortonio acknowledged the concern of the tourism sector for more accommodation facilities after seeing an increase in the number of conferences and conventions. “Apart from the growing number of tourists, the city has also been hosting a

number of conferences and conventions lately,” he said. He added that they always highlight the dire lack of hotels to potential investors. “Whenever we receive interested investors and business groups looking for investment opportunities in the city, we always highlight the need for hotels in the city,” he said. Ortonio said several foreign and Filipino investors have shown interest to build tourism facilities here. “On the challenges, there is not much of a problem in attracting per se because there is already a growing interest and spotlight on the city,” he said. However, he said that the “challenge is actually convincing them that their investment will flourish not just during the term of PRRD (President Rodrigo R. Duterte) in the next five and a half years, but for the long-term,” he said.

The global population of billionaires jumped 13 percent from last year to a record 2,043, the biggest annual increase in the 31 years since the magazine began compiling the list, Forbes said. The US had the most billionaires with 565, a product of the swelling value of the American stock market since Trump’s November 2016 election.
