5 Billionaires Investing In Fintech

• Jack Ma

Net worth: $23.5 billion
Annual change: $700 million
Company: Ant Group
Citizenship: China

Jack Ma’s Fintech company Ant Group was first established as Alipay in 2004 to provide online sellers and buyers with payment solutions. Today, Alipay China delivers payment services to more than one billion users and 80 million merchants. In January 2023, Ma announced that he was giving up control of Ant Group to allay regulatory concerns about the business. This move comes more than two years after regulators in Beijing suspended the company’s planned IPO as part of a larger crackdown on Chinese tech giants. Ma is one of the world’s richest e-commerce billionaires and is also the co-founder of Alibaba.
