India's Gautam Adani becomes world's third-richest person with $137.4bn fortune

The centibillionaire's net worth has surged $60.9bn in 2022 as he continues to expand his conglomerate

Few outside of India had heard of self-made billionaire Gautam Adani a few years ago. Now, the Indian businessman, a university dropout who first tried his luck as a diamond trader before turning to coal, has become the world’s third-richest person.

It is the first time an Asian magnate has broken into the top three of the Bloomberg Billionaires Index — fellow citizen Mukesh Ambani and China’s Jack Ma never made it that far.

With a net worth of $137.4 billion, Mr Adani, 60, has overtaken France’s Bernard Arnault and now trails Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos of the US in the ranking.

Mr Adani has spent the past few years expanding his coal-to-ports conglomerate, venturing into everything from data centres to cement, media and alumina.

The group now owns India’s largest private-sector port and airport operator, city gas distributor and coal miner.

While its Carmichael mine in Australia has been criticised by environmentalists, it pledged in November to invest $70bn in green energy to become the world’s largest renewable energy producer.

As his empire has expanded to become one of the world’s largest conglomerates, fuelling the remarkable wealth gains, concerns have grown over the rapid growth.

Mr Adani’s deals spree has been predominantly funded with debt and his empire is “deeply overleveraged”, CreditSights said in a report this month.

Some legislators and market watchers have also raised concerns over opaque shareholder structures and a lack of analyst coverage at Adani Group companies.

Yet the shares have soared — some of them more than 1,000 per cent since 2020, with valuations hitting 750 times earnings — as the tycoon focused on areas that Prime Minister Narendra Modi deems crucial to meeting India’s long-term goals.

The pivot to green energy and infrastructure has won investments from businesses such as Warburg Pincus and TotalEnergies, helping Mr Adani to enter the echelons previously dominated by US technology moguls.

The surge in coal in recent months has further turbocharged his ascent.

All told, Mr Adani has added $60.9bn to his fortune in 2022 alone, five times more than anyone else.

He first overtook Mr Ambani as the richest Asian in February, became a centibillionaire in April and surpassed Microsoft’s Bill Gates as the world’s fourth-richest person last month.

Mr Adani was able to move past some of the world’s richest US billionaires partly because they have recently boosted their philanthropy.

In July, Mr Gates said he was transferring $20bn to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, while Warren Buffett has already donated more than $35bn to the charity.

The two, along with Mr Gates’s former wife Melinda French Gates, started the Giving Pledge initiative in 2010, vowing to give away most of their fortunes in their lifetimes.

The billions of dollars spent on philanthropy has pushed them lower on the Bloomberg wealth ranking. Mr Gates is now fifth and Mr Buffett is sixth.

Mr Adani has also increased his charitable giving, pledging in June to donate $7.7bn to social causes to mark his 60th birthday.

Six tips to secure your smart home

Most smart home devices are controlled via the owner's smartphone. Therefore, if you are using public wi-fi on your phone, always use a VPN (virtual private network) that offers strong security features and anonymises your internet connection.

Keep your smart home devices’ software up-to-date. Device makers often send regular updates - follow them without fail as they could provide protection from a new security risk.

Use two-factor authentication so that in addition to a password, your identity is authenticated by a second sign-in step like a code sent to your mobile number.

Set up a separate guest network for acquaintances and visitors to ensure the privacy of your IoT devices’ network.

Change the default privacy and security settings of your IoT devices to take extra steps to secure yourself and your home.

Always give your router a unique name, replacing the one generated by the manufacturer, to ensure a hacker cannot ascertain its make or model number.

Real estate tokenisation project

Dubai launched the pilot phase of its real estate tokenisation project last month.

The initiative focuses on converting real estate assets into digital tokens recorded on blockchain technology and helps in streamlining the process of buying, selling and investing, the Dubai Land Department said.

Dubai’s real estate tokenisation market is projected to reach Dh60 billion ($16.33 billion) by 2033, representing 7 per cent of the emirate’s total property transactions, according to the DLD.

Farage on Muslim Brotherhood

Nigel Farage told Reform's annual conference that the party will proscribe the Muslim Brotherhood if he becomes Prime Minister.
"We will stop dangerous organisations with links to terrorism operating in our country," he said. "Quite why we've been so gutless about this – both Labour and Conservative – I don't know.
“All across the Middle East, countries have banned and proscribed the Muslim Brotherhood as a dangerous organisation. We will do the very same.”
It is 10 years since a ground-breaking report into the Muslim Brotherhood by Sir John Jenkins.
Among the former diplomat's findings was an assessment that “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” has “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
The prime minister at the time, David Cameron, who commissioned the report, said membership or association with the Muslim Brotherhood was a "possible indicator of extremism" but it would not be banned.

What is the FNC?

The Federal National Council is one of five federal authorities established by the UAE constitution. It held its first session on December 2, 1972, a year to the day after Federation.
It has 40 members, eight of whom are women. The members represent the UAE population through each of the emirates. Abu Dhabi and Dubai have eight members each, Sharjah and Ras al Khaimah six, and Ajman, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain have four.
They bring Emirati issues to the council for debate and put those concerns to ministers summoned for questioning. 
The FNC’s main functions include passing, amending or rejecting federal draft laws, discussing international treaties and agreements, and offering recommendations on general subjects raised during sessions.
Federal draft laws must first pass through the FNC for recommendations when members can amend the laws to suit the needs of citizens. The draft laws are then forwarded to the Cabinet for consideration and approval. 
Since 2006, half of the members have been elected by UAE citizens to serve four-year terms and the other half are appointed by the Ruler’s Courts of the seven emirates.
In the 2015 elections, 78 of the 252 candidates were women. Women also represented 48 per cent of all voters and 67 per cent of the voters were under the age of 40.

Three ways to limit your social media use

Clinical psychologist, Dr Saliha Afridi at The Lighthouse Arabia suggests three easy things you can do every day to cut back on the time you spend online.

1. Put the social media app in a folder on the second or third screen of your phone so it has to remain a conscious decision to open, rather than something your fingers gravitate towards without consideration.

2. Schedule a time to use social media instead of consistently throughout the day. I recommend setting aside certain times of the day or week when you upload pictures or share information. 

3. Take a mental snapshot rather than a photo on your phone. Instead of sharing it with your social world, try to absorb the moment, connect with your feeling, experience the moment with all five of your senses. You will have a memory of that moment more vividly and for far longer than if you take a picture of it.

US tops drug cost charts

The study of 13 essential drugs showed costs in the United States were about 300 per cent higher than the global average, followed by Germany at 126 per cent and 122 per cent in the UAE.

Thailand, Kenya and Malaysia were rated as nations with the lowest costs, about 90 per cent cheaper.

In the case of insulin, diabetic patients in the US paid five and a half times the global average, while in the UAE the costs are about 50 per cent higher than the median price of branded and generic drugs.

Some of the costliest drugs worldwide include Lipitor for high cholesterol. 

The study’s price index placed the US at an exorbitant 2,170 per cent higher for Lipitor than the average global price and the UAE at the eighth spot globally with costs 252 per cent higher.

High blood pressure medication Zestril was also more than 2,680 per cent higher in the US and the UAE price was 187 per cent higher than the global price.
