Spain Raises Millionaires to 33, Wealth Soars to Record Levels

Spain Raises Millionaires to 33, Wealth Soars to Record Levels

January 19, 2026 Ahmed Hassan - World News Editor World

⁢ ​ Cinco nuevos nombres se han sumado en el último año ‌a la lista de milmillonarios en ​España,que ya alcanza a 33 personas,la gran mayoría​ hombres,y que ‌han llevado sus fortunas a niveles récords de casi 220.000 millones⁤ de euros, según el último informe anual sobre desigualdad de Oxfam Intermón. La ONG,que publica‌ el estudio coincidiendo con el‍ inicio ‍del⁤ Foro Económico ​Mundial de Davos,denuncia mientras ‍una ‍parte importante de la población ve erosionado su poder adquisitivo.
⁢

‍ ⁤ ⁣El informe Contra el imperio de los ⁢más⁢ ricos recoge⁢ que el patrimonio acumulado ⁢por los milmillonarios españoles ‌supera ya ‍al de “18,7 millones” de personas, que representa casi el ​40% de​ la población.‌
⁢

⁢ ⁢ ​ La lista -del ranking en tiempo‌ real de la revista Forbes– está‍ encabezada por ‌Amancio Ortega,fundador de Inditex. le siguen ⁤su hija y empresaria Sandra ortega Mera, Rafael del Pino, presidente de Ferrovial, ​y Juan Roig, presidente de⁣ Mercadona. ⁣la mayoría de estas grandes fortunas continúan concentradas en⁣ manos de hombres.
⁢

The wealth of Spain’s 33 ⁢billionaires grew by almost €28.3 billion compared to the previous year, reaching €197.5 billion, ​the highest level recorded to date.In real terms, the increase⁣ was 13.6%,”more than ⁣four times the growth expected for the Spanish⁢ economy in 2025,” which‌ is set at 2.9%.

The NGO also warns that the ⁢concentration of wealth is accelerating substantially. The increase in the fortunes of the billionaires was “four times ‌faster than the average of ⁢the⁤ last five ‍years,” equivalent to gains of⁤ more than “€77 million per day” during the last year. To reach that same​ figure woudl require the annual work of “nearly‌ a ⁤million people,” the NGO counters.

⁤ ‍ The context…

⁤‌ ‍ Mientras‍ los salarios pierden peso en el reparto de la riqueza ‌nacional, el ⁣coste ⁣de ‌la vida sigue presionando a los⁢ hogares, especialmente ⁢ en partidas básicas como la vivienda, la energía ‍y la alimentación.​ Esta combinación explica que, ⁣pese ⁢al ‍crecimiento económico, muchas personas tengan serias dificultades para llegar a ⁤fin de mes.
‍

⁤⁣ La desigualdad⁤ patrimonial refuerza esta brecha.”El 1% más rico de la población concentra​ el 23,9% de la riqueza total‌ del país, mientras que la mitad más ‌pobre apenas posee el 6,7%”, sostiene Oxfam. Aún más acusado es el caso​ del ​0,1%‌ más rico: “unas ​48.000 personas con una riqueza‌ media cercana a los 20 millones de euros”, ⁣que ya controlan más ⁢del ⁤10% de la riqueza nacional y⁣ han aumentado su peso de⁣ forma sostenida desde 2010, alerta la⁣ ONG.
‌

La organización lanza una señal de “alerta” ante las decisiones políticas que está tomando Donald Trump.”Desde su llegada al poder, se ​han reducido los impuestos a los superricos, se han⁣ bloqueado avances en fiscalidad internacional para grandes ⁣corporaciones, se han ⁣limitado los ‌intentos de frenar el⁣ poder de ⁢los monopolios y se ha ‍impulsado el valor en bolsa de sectores⁢ como el​ de la inteligencia artificial, generando importantes beneficios que han‌ ido a parar casi exclusivamente a las grandes fortunas”, critica Oxfam.

ía de la población mundial​ y⁤ en algunos casos de imperiosa ‌necesidad. La ONG recuerda que​ “casi⁢ la mitad de las personas del planeta ⁤viven en situación de pobreza, con menos de⁤ 8,3 dólares al⁣ día, y un 28% se encuentra en situación de inseguridad alimentaria”.
