Sheikh Khalifa net worth was $15 billion at the time of his death which he left behind to his eight children and wife.
He was chairman of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, which manages $875 billion in assets, the most enormous amount collected by a nation’s head of state.
Sheikh controlled 97.8 billion barrels of oil reserves. The Al Nahyan family is thought to be worth $150 billion collectively.
After Abu Dhabi gave Dubai $10 billion to help pay off debts, the world’s tallest artificial structure, originally known as Burj Dubai, was renamed the Burj Khalifa in his honor on January 4, 2010.
Khalifa was named to Forbes’ list of the world’s most influential people in 2018.
After surgery, Khalifa had a stroke and was in stable condition. He took a lower profile in state affairs, but he kept his ceremonial presidency.
