As an orphan from Leningrad became one of the richest women in the world
Margarita Louis-Dreyfus is one of the richest women in the world — its condition is estimated at 6.4 billion dollars. But the Russian-born entrepreneur, which the French press calls "the Queen," was not always so rich.
Her life in 1988, completely changed the meeting on the plane with her future husband Robert Louis-Dreyfus — which transformed a former seller of computer equipment in a mother and homemaker.
Years later, after the death of Robert Louis-Dreyfus from leukemia, her life took another sharp turn — she took in their hands the reins of his trading firm and met a new partner — former head of the Swiss National Bank.
Let's take a look at her incredible life.
Margarita Louis-Dreyfus (nee Bogdanova) was born in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) on 1 July 1962.
Unfortunately, her parents died in a train accident when Margaret was seven years old. So basically the girl was raised by her grandfather, Leonid Bogdanov. Thanks to him, she was educated and studied at the law faculty of Moscow state University. She also received a degree in Economics at the Leningrad Institute of Soviet trade. Leonid Bogdanov died in 1985. After receiving higher education, Margaret worked as a seller of equipment for the production of printed circuit boards in the company LATRON AG. In the late 1980's, she married a Swiss student who studied in the USSR for the exchange, but a year later divorced. The name of the first husband and the marriage date is unknown. But in 1988, things changed: during the flight from Zurich to London, she met Robert Louis-Dreyfus. The plane Margaret asked him what time it was, and he pulled a picture of her old English Sheepdog Bobtail. Then between them was a connection of sympathy. Robert Louis-Dreyfus was a cousin of American actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, known for key roles in the TV shows "Seinfeld" and "Veep". Past Robert also quite interesting. He grew up in Paris to a wealthy and educated family. But was a poor student, who failed the baccalaureate. Although Robert was extremely good at poker. Enrolling in Harvard business school with a presentation about their experiences in the six day war between Israel and the Arab States, he paid for his studies by winning poker. Robert made a fortune, saving the company falls into distress. Among them were Adidas and advertising firm Saatchi & Saatchi.
After meeting on the plane Robert asked Margaret to translate the document into Russian language. "I told him, "you know, You could invite me to dinner, and without translation," and he said, "Oh, Yes, Yes," she later recalled. In 1992, the Robert and Margarita Louis-Dreyfus got married and Marguerite became a full-fledged wife, mother and citizen of Switzerland. The couple had three children — Eric and the twins Cyril and Maurice.
During this time, Robert has significantly increased its state and eventually in 1996 became the largest shareholder of "Olympique Marseille" — the famous French football club.
In 2000, he returned to the family company to trade in commodities, which specializiruetsya in the field of agriculture, Louis-Dreyfus Group. It was founded by his great-grandfather in 1851.
Unfortunately, in 2009 the Robert Louis-Dreyfus died at the age of 63 from leukemia.
Before his death, Robert had created a family trust, called Akira BV, which kept its controlling stake, calling the family caregiver Margarita Louis-Dreyfus Commodities. This meant that Margaret had inherited the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Louis-Dreyfus Group and "Olympique Marseille". In the Louis-Dreyfus Group voting was impossible because her late husband blocked stock for 99 years.
After her husband's death, Margaret had to fight for something that she started to be respected in the management of the company. "It's a man's world and mostly men don't take women seriously," she said.
Philip Chalmin, Professor of Economics, says: "As a rule, the boss has been a trader. You might think that she's just gonna live on the income from the state of her rich husband, but it was not so."
In 2012, Margarita told Bloomberg that its aim is the preservation of the Louis Dreyfus Commodities Group for the heirs of Robert that was the "dying wish of her husband."
Now 18 year old twins Cyril and Maurice attended school in Singapore, "for the knowledge of new cultures and expand their horizons," says Margaret in an interview with Bloomberg. At the same time, her 23-year-old son Erik probation in another commodities giant Glencore.
Margaret made some huge changes. In 2012 she sold the energy business of the company and increased its stake in Louis Dreyfus Group.
Being the head of "Olympique Marseille", she refused a takeover by billionaire al-Waleed, a Prince from Saudi Arabia.
But the personal life of Margaret once again became the center of attention when in 2013 she met Philipp Hildebrand, who is now 52 years — Vice-Chairman of US investment manager BlackRock and former Chairman of the Board of the Swiss national Bank.
In the same year, Hildebrand amicably parted ways with Kashia Hildebrand, after the pair were involved in a monetary scandal. It was argued that Kasia made 75 thousand Swiss francs, using insider information for monetary policy of the Swiss Central Bank. Philipp Hildebrand resigned as head of the national Bank.
