4. Massimiliana Landini Aleotti ($10.6 billion)
Massimiliana Landini Aleotti is the owner of Menarini. It is the giant pharmaceutical company in Italy.
Her late husband, Alberto Aleotti, built the company into one of the leading companies in Italy. When he passed away two years ago, she took over.
Italy seems to have many issues with tax evasions. Or perhaps it is just being thorough due to its own debt problem. After Valentino Rossi, the Aleotti family was also investigated for tax evasion allegation. This issue is still pending.
The 73-years-old widow is now living in Milan, Italy. She owns a total of $10.6 billion net worth. This put her as the 101th billionaire in the world and the 4th in Italy.
