Tycoon Akhmetov again named the richest Ukrainian

Businessman from Donetsk Rinat Akhmetov has again topped the rating of the 100 richest Ukrainians, which was compiled by the Novoye Vremia Weekly jointly with investment company Dragon Capital, according to TV news service TSN.

As was the case last year, tycoon Akhmetov ranks first. His assets are estimated at $4.1 billion. War in Donbas has affected the value of his assets most, TSN reported.

Akhmetov`s fortune, which incorporates energy company DTEK and steelmaker Metinvest, shrank by 8% from 2015.
