Biography

  • Ingvar Kamprad, who died in 2018, transferred the bulk of his Ikea empire to foundations in the 80's, but kept enough to make his sons billionaires.
  • Mathias and his brothers own Ikano Group, which was created to manage Ikea's real estate and financial service businesses, but was spun out in 1988.
  • Today Ikano Group is a $2.1 billion (sales) company with interests in banking, real estate and Asian shopping centers.
  • Mathias, the youngest brother, is a board member of Inter Ikea Holding, the owner of the intellectual property assets.
  • He sits on the board of Ikano Group, and on the supervisory board of Interogo, a Liechtenstein-based foundation that is the ultimate owner of Ikea.
  • Mathias put in two years as assistant to Ikea's founder, Ingvar Kamprad, ranked among the top 10 richest people in the world for five years.
  • Ingvar Kamprad's net worth took a slide in 2011 after his lawyers produced documents proving that he had irrevocably transferred economic control decades earlier.
