This article introduces an original dataset of formal political participation for over 2,000 individuals included in the Forbes Billionaires List. We find that billionaire politicians are a surprisingly common phenomenon: Over 11% of the world’s billionaires have held or sought political office. Even compared to other elite groups known for producing politicians from their ranks, this is a high rate of political participation. Moreover, billionaires focus their political ambitions on influential positions, have a strong track record of winning elections, and lean to the right ideologically. We also document substantial cross-national variation: A country’s number of billionaire politicians is not simply a product of its total number of billionaires but is instead related to regime type. Indeed, billionaires formally enter the political sphere at a much higher rate in autocracies than in democracies. We conclude by discussing the normative implications of our findings and outlining a new research agenda on billionaire politicians.

Introduction

In order to develop effective crowdsourcing aggregation methods for multiple choice question answering(MCQA) and evaluate them empirically, we developed and deployed a crowdsourced system for playing the “Who wants to be a millionaire?” quiz show. Note that, as question and answer texts are originally in Turkish you should use UTF8 format at all times to avoid encoding problems.

Data

Over the period of 9 months, we collected over 3 GB of data using our CrowdMillionaire app. In our dataset, there are 1908 questions and 214,658 unique answers to those questions from CrowdMillionaire participants. In addition, we have more than 5 million offline answers for archived live questions. Our dataset includes detailed information on the game play. For example, our exhaustive timestamps show (1) how much time it took for a question to arrive to a participant, (2) when the question is actually presented to the participant on her device, and (3) when exactly the participant answered the question. We shared this dataset in order to advance the understanding of the MCQA dynamics, after we cleaned and anonymized the data.

This data set pertains to the largest works in the OpenITI corpus at or prior to 1000 AH and is based on the 2023.1.8 release of the corpus and the corresponding text reuse data between the books in the corpus, which is generated by running using passim on the corpus.

We wanted to understand the extent to which a small number of persons produced a substantial percentage of the OpenITI corpus, on a word-count basis. We call the authors with work(s) over a million words the ‘millionaires’.

The data will be analysed in forthcoming publications by the KITAB project team, including a monograph by Sarah Bowen Savant under contract with Edinburgh University Press. KITAB is funded by the European Research Council under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, awarded to the KITAB project (Grant Agreement No. 772989, PI Sarah Bowen Savant), hosted at Aga Khan University, London. In addition, it has received funding from the Qatar National Library to aid in the adaptation of the passim algorithm for Arabic.

KITAB’s text reuse data is published on Zenodo and each version is the output of a separate run. The version number of each release corresponds to the corpus releases.

This paper estimates the degree of risk aversion from one of the most popular TV gameshows ever. The format of the show is straightforward; it involves no strategic decision making; we have a large number of observations; and the prizes are cash, which is paid immediately and covers a large range: from £100 up to £1 million. We provide non-parametric estimates of the utility function and then we test some parametric restrictions. We find that, although the restriction to CRRA utility is statistically rejected, a log function approximates the utility function quite well over a large range of potential winnings.

Based on Bloomberg's Billionaires index...

The Bloomberg Billionaires Index is a daily ranking of the world's richest people. In calculating net worth, Bloomberg News strives to provide the most transparent calculations available, and each individual billionaire profile contains a detailed analysis of how that person's fortune is tallied.

The index is a dynamic measure of personal wealth based on changes in markets, the economy and Bloomberg reporting. Each net worth figure is updated every business day after the close of trading in New York. Stakes in publicly traded companies are valued using the share's most recent closing price. Valuations are converted to U.S. dollars at current exchange rates.

Closely held companies are valued in several ways, such as by comparing the enterprise value-to-Ebitda or price-to-earnings ratios of similar public companies or by using comparable transactions. Calculations of closely held company debt -- if net debt cannot be determined -- are based on the net debt-to-Ebitda ratios of comparable peers. The value of closely held companies adjusts daily based on market moves for peer companies or by applying the market movement of a relevant industry index. The criteria used to choose peer companies is based on the closely held asset's industry and size.

When ownership of closely held assets cannot be verified, they aren't included in the calculations. The specific valuation methodology for each closely held company is included in the net worth analysis section of a billionaire's profile. Additional details included in the valuation notes for each asset are available to subscribers of the Bloomberg Professional Service.

A standard liquidity discount of 5 percent is applied to most closely held companies where assets may be hard to sell. When a different percentage is used an explanation is given. No liquidity discounts are applied to the values of public stakes. In some instances, a country risk discount is also applied based on a person's concentration of assets and ease of selling them in a given geography. A country's risk is assessed based on Standard & Poor's sovereign debt ratings.

If a billionaire has pledged as collateral shares he or she holds in a public company, the value of those shares or the value of a loan taken against them is removed from the net worth calculation. If reliable information can be obtained about the ultimate use of those borrowed funds, that value is added back into the calculation.

Hedge fund businesses are valued using the average market capitalization-to-assets under management ratios of the most comparable publicly traded funds. Fee income is not considered because it cannot be uniformly verified. Personal funds invested along with outside capital are not included in the calculation. A "key man" risk discount of 25 percent is applied to funds whose performance is tied to a single individual. Assets under management are updated using ADV forms filed with the federal government and news reports, and returns are factored when sourced to reports from credible news outfits, the HFRI Index and industry analysts.

Net worth calculations include dividend income paid and proceeds from the sale of public and closely held shares. Taxes are deducted based on prevailing income, dividend and capital gains tax rates in a billionaire's country of residence. Taxes are applied at the highest rate unless there is evidence to support a lower percentage, in which case an explanation is given in the net worth summary. For calculations of cash and other investable assets, a hybrid return based on holdings in cash, government bonds, equities and commodities is applied.

No assumptions are made about personal debt. Family members often hold a portion of a billionaire's assets. Such transfers don't change the nature of who ultimately controls the fortune. As a result, Bloomberg News operates under the rule that all billionaire fortunes are inherently family fortunes and credit family fortunes to the founders or ranking family members who are determined to have direct control over the assets. When individual stakes can be verified and adult family members have an active role in a business, the value is credited to each individual.

Each billionaire -- or a representative -- is given an opportunity to respond to questions regarding the net worth calculation, including assets and liabilities.

Bloomberg News editorial policy is to not cover Bloomberg L.P. As a result, Michael Bloomberg, the founder and majority owner of Bloomberg L.P., isn't considered for this ranking.

Because calculating net worth requires a degree of estimation, bull and bear case scenarios that would make a person's fortune higher or lower than the Bloomberg Billionaires Index valuation are included on the Bloomberg Professional Service. A confidence rating also is included on each profile:

The number of high networth individuals in Russia was forecast to continuously increase between 2024 and 2029 by in total 179.7 thousand individuals (+33.88 percent). After the ninth consecutive increasing year, the number of individuals is estimated to reach 710.01 thousand individuals and therefore a new peak in 2029. High Net Worth Individuals are here defined as persons with investible assets of at least one million U.S. dollars in current exchange rate terms.The shown data are an excerpt of Statista's Key Market Indicators (KMI).
