Largest companies in the world

Welcome to my “Largest companies in the world.”
The American edition Forbes presented a fresh rating of the 2,000 largest public companies in the world. Most of them are in the US and China. There are no Ukrainian companies in the rating.https://www.blogger.com

Total in the list of corporations from 58 countries, the total revenue is more than $ 35 trillion, net profit - $ 2.5 trillion. At the same time, their assets are valued at $ 169.1 trillion and capitalization is $ 48.8 billion. Most of the companies in the rating are from the USA: there are 565 on the list. Another 263 represent China.

In the list - almost entirely banks:

    ICBC - China
    China Construction Bank - China
    Berkshire Hathaway - United States
    JPMorgan Chase - United States
    Wells Fargo - USA
    Agricultural Bank of China - China
    Bank of America - USA
    Bank of China - China
    Apple - United States
    Toyota Motor - Japan

The place on the list is determined by four indicators: revenue, net profit, assets, and capitalization. Thanks to this, Chinese banks, whose assets are estimated at trillions of dollars (at the expense of thousands of branches throughout the country), rank higher than Facebook or Amazon.

Of the technological high places are Samsung (15), Microsoft (19), Alphabet (24), IBM (43), Intel (54), Amazon (83) and Facebook (119).

Recall, previously Forbes published a rating of the world's richest people. Bill Gates, who invariably holds the first line for many years, even shared a couple of tips with alumni.
The American edition of the Forbes edition traditionally marks the rating of the richest people on the planet on March 20. And for a year already the first place in it is occupied by the founder of Microsoft, and also the largest philanthropist of the world - Bill Gates. In general, in the first ten, half of the participants earned their money on technology and telecom.

According to the publication, in 2016 the list of the world's richest people, whose fortune exceeds a billion dollars, first grew beyond two thousand people. Now there are 2,043 billionaires in the world, whereas last year there were "only" 1810. And this is in view of the fact that 78 people from the list were dropped. There has never been such a big leap. The general state of billionaires has grown to $ 7.67 trillion. This is also a record. By the way, most of all new billionaires got China - 76 people at once. In the second place, the US - 25 people, whose bank account exceeded the number of 9 zeros.

Despite the active development of modern businesses (like Snapchat), young billionaires are very few - only 56 people to 40 years old. And only four little more than twenty years. All the rest are much older.

The top ten billionaires are as follows:

    Bill Gates. The state is $ 86 billion. The main source of wealth is Microsoft.
    Warren Buffett. The state is $ 75.6 billion. The main source of wealth is Berkshire Hathaway / investment.
    Jeff Bezos. The state is $ 72.5 billion. The main source of wealth is Amazon.
    Amancio Ortega. The state is $ 71.6 billion. The main source of wealth is the Inditex Group (many are known for the Zara brand/clothing).
    Mark Zuckerberg. The state is $ 56.4 billion. The main source of wealth is Facebook.
    Carlos Slim Elu. The state is $ 54.5 billion. The main source of wealth is telecom.
    Larry Ellison. The state is $ 52.2 billion. The main source of wealth is Oracle.
    Charles Koch. The state is $ 48.3 billion. The main source of wealth is Koch Industries (a conglomerate of companies).
    David Koch. The state is $ 48.3 billion. The main source of wealth is Koch Industries.
    Michael Bloomberg. The state is $ 47.5 billion. The main source of wealth is Bloomberg / a media company.

Over the past year, billionaires from the top ten have increased their fortunes by more than $ 100 billion: Jeff Bezos + $ 27 billion, Warren Buffett - $ 14.5 billion, and Bill Gates - $ 11 billion.

Earlier, the editorial board of AIN.UA published a selection of books, which, according to Bill Gates, everyone should read. Not the fact that this will help you earn your billion. But the richest man in the world already does not advise a bad year.
The world's largest companies - 2015
Rating of the largest companies in the world by capitalization in 2015. The leaders are American corporations. Russian companies dropped out of the first hundred FT Global 500
Written by: global-finances.r
In the summer of 2015. international business publication The Financial Times published the traditional rating of the world's largest companies - FT Global 500.

Its formation is based on data on the current market capitalization of corporations (as of March 31 this year).

The calculation itself is made as follows: the value of one share of the company is multiplied by the total number of securities issued by it.

The world's largest companies - 2015, according to the FT Global 500 rating (in billions of dollars)

1. Apple (technology sector, USA) - 724,773

2. ExxonMobil (oil and gas sector, USA) - 356,548

3. Berkshire Hathaway (investment sector, USA) - 356,510

4. Google (the sector of computer technology and software, USA) - 345.849

5. Microsoft (the sector of computer technology and software, USA) - 333.524

6. PetroChinal (oil and gas sector, China) - 329,715

7. Wells Fargo (banking, USA) - 279,919

8. Johnson @ Johnson (Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology, USA) - 279,723

9. Industrial @ Commercial Bank of China (banking sector, China) - 275,389
10. Novartis (Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Sector, Switzerland) - 267,897

As we can see, American corporations still hold leading positions.

They have the 5 first places in the top ten (by capitalization) companies in the world.

As for Russian concerns, they consistently lose their positions in this rating.

If in 2013. companies from Russia dropped out of the Top 50, then in 2015. - already beyond the first hundred FT Global 500.

So, Gazprom moved from 83 to 170 position, its market capitalization decreased from 91.3 to 56.5 billion dollars;

- Rosneft - fell from 122 to 213, capitalization fell from 70.7 to 45.9 billion dollars;

- "LUKOIL" - from 206 to 271 places, with a capitalization of 39.5 billion dollars;

- "Norilsk Nickel" - from 417 to 421 places, capitalization - 28.3 billion dollars.

- Surgutneftegaz - from 332 to 441 places, capitalization - 27.4 billion dollars.

In addition, in 2015g. just two Russian companies - Sberbank and NOVATEK - left the rating of the 500 largest companies in the world by capitalization altogether.

Although in 2014g. they occupied respectively 177th and 350th places in the FT Global 500.

According to experts, this was influenced by such factors as falling oil prices, devaluation of the ruble, a decline in the stock market.
