World's Top Single Female Billionaires

Some of them are not so young, some are wild, but most importantly, all of them are free. Most may have earned their money through inheritance, but there is one who earned her way to fortune. They are the billionaire bachelorettes.

Delphine Arnault – $2 billion



Delphine Arnault is one of the richest women of France and in the world. She

graduated from the EDHEC Business School in Lille and the London School of

Economics. The daughter of Bernard Arnault, the Chairman and Chief Executive

& Company in Paris before joining her father’s company. She is the second biggest

individual stockholder in the company with 7.5 percent of all its shares. She serves

as the Human Resources Manager in the company, though she has also contributed

significantly in product development. Among the products she helped developed was

Dior Parfums. She got married in 2005 to Alessandro Vallarino Gancia, an Italian

heir to the Gancia dynasty of wines. The two got a divorce after five years, however.

established a new company called Omega Capital, which has since become one

of the largest family offices in Europe. The company has become well known for

its tight handling of its portfolio, allowing their funds to earn at least 10 percent with

less than three percent volatility. The funds handled by the company are the only
