The Meriton apartment developer Harry Triguboff increased his wealth by $770 million in the past year, but still slipped down a spot to be named Australia’s third richest person in 2019.

High-rise Harry was given a $13.54 billion net worth on the nation’s wealthiest 200 in the Financial Review Rich List.

With wealth of $15.57 billion, paper and packaging magnate Anthony Pratt ranks as the nation’s richest, followed by mining magnate Gina Rinehartwith $13.810 billion.

The Shimao property baron Hui Wing Mau came fourth at $10.390 billion and tech whiz Scott Farquhar fifth with $9.75 billion and his Atlassian co-founder Mike Cannon-Brrokes sixth at $9.63 million.

Cannon-Brookes and Farquhar were placed fourth and fifth on The List of Australia’s Richest 250 when it was published by The Australian in late March, with wealth of $9.01 billion each — the bulk of which is from their respective, and equal, Atlassian share holdings.
