Biography

  • Rahel Blocher owes her fortune to EMS-Chemie, the Swiss polymer and chemical giant that her family has run for decades.
  • She received her stake when her father, Christoph Blocher, sold his shares to his children in 2004 to take a seat on the Swiss federal council.
  • Her sisters, Magdalena and Miriam, and brother Markus, are also billionaires.
  • Unlike Magdalena, who is the company's longtime CEO, Rahel isn't actively involved in EMS-Chemie's operations.
  • Instead she heads her father's investment company, Robinvest, and sits on the board of his Schweizer Musikinsel Rheinau Foundation.
  • The foundation operates Musikinsel, or "music hotel," an old monastery that was converted to provide cheap practice space and housing for musicians.
