U.S. President Donald Trump’s personal fortune held steady over the past year, but he vaulted higher on the Forbes list of the richest people in the world as dozens of his fellow tycoons suffered financial setbacks.

 

Trump’s $3.1 billion net worth is unchanged from last year, Forbes said. Still, his real estate holdings held their value better than assets that make up the portfolios of a lot of other billionaires, boosting him 51 spots to 715th among the world’s 2,153 billionaires, said Luisa Kroll, Forbes Magazine assistant managing editor.

 

“He moves up because so many billionaires dropped in the ranks,” Kroll told Reuters on Wednesday. “He kind of stayed flat but was able to increase his position.”
