The Financial Review has released its Rich Women List for International Women’s Day, ranking the 75 richest women in Australia, and it features at least two Greek Australians.
Debbie Kepitis and Kayla Itsines both featured once again on the list.
The wealth of the nation’s richest women soared by 30 per cent over the past 12 months, with female representation in resources, technology, property and fashion.
It is also estimated that the 75 women listed control $151.2 billion, up from $116 billion last year.
Kepitis, came in at 50, for the manufacturing and property industry with an estimated value of $320 million in fortune.
She is the director of Ingham Property and is also known for being the daughter of well-known racehorse owner and breeder Bob Ingham.
She continues her father’s legacy, alongside her husband Paul Kepitis, co-owning champion racing horse Winx.
A Greek Australian at heart since her marriage with Paul – often a benefactor of the community.
South Australian fitness mogul Kayla Itsines was ranked 67, with a value of $165 million in the technology industry.
The personal trainer is behind Bikini Body Training Company and also co-founded fitness app Sweat in 2014 with her former fiancé Tobi Pearce.
She is the face of the app, which has over one million users, and remains its head trainer after she and Pearce sold it to US-based iFit in 2021.
The deal was worth $400 million and following their separation, a number of properties are in ownership of companies under Itsines.
Valuations for the list are ruled off at the beginning of March are based on assumptions from publicly available information.
