The combined wealth of the 200 individuals was calculated as 282.7 billion; compared with a combined wealth of 6.4 billion in 1984 when the BRW Rich 200 commenced. Nineteen women were included on the 2018 Rich List, representing 8.5 percent of the list. The average age was 66 years. The list included a record 76 individuals whose net worth was one billion or more, an increase of 16 from 2017; and about one-quarter of those billionaires lived offshore at the time of the list's publication.
