Wang Jianlin makes Bloomberg Markets Most Influential Individual List

Wang Jianlin, Chairman and founder of Dalian Wanda Group was recognized as one of the most Influential 50 people by Bloomberg Markets. We are glad to see Xi Jinping, President of the People’s Republic of China and Jiang Jianqing, Chairman of ICBC were also on the list. President Xi Jinping was ranked as No.2 on the list.

Excerpt from Bloomberg Markets :

They build companies and assemble fortunes. They run banks, or hope to disrupt them. They shape economies and spread ideas. They manage money and wield the clout that goes with the billions of dollars they invest. The 50 people in our fifth annual Most Influential ranking are a varied group but have in common extraordinary success in their chosen fields.

In selecting our influential elite, we favor recent accomplishments over lifetime achievements. Half the people here have never appeared on our list before. Tech executives and entrepreneurs and the venture capitalists who fund them are ascendant of late, and the list reflects that. China, for better or worse, is vital to global markets, and we have a bigger Asia cohort than ever.
