List of Iranian people by net worth
Iranians or people of Iranian descent who are known to have a net worth or wealth equal or greater than one hundred million United States dollars (dollar definition gives parity with other nationalities).
An investigation by Reuters found the holdings of an Iranian organization called Setad Ejraiye Farmane Hazrate Emam to total about 95 billion USD. As of 2015, the organization is controlled by Ali Khamenei, but the organization's total worth is "difficult to pinpoint because of the secrecy of its accounts."[1]
