The world’s five richest men have more than doubled their fortunes to $869bn since 2020, while the world’s poorest 60% – almost 5 billion people – have lost money.
全世界最富有的5个人自2020年以来财富已经翻倍,达到了8690亿美元,而全世界最贫穷的60%(近50亿人)财富却缩水了。
The details come in a report by Oxfam as the world’s richest people gather from Monday in Davos, Switzerland, for the annual World Economic Forum meeting of political leaders, corporate executives and the super-rich.
乐施会在富豪云集的达沃斯论坛开幕之际发布了这一报告。一年一度的世界经济论坛1月14日在瑞士达沃斯开幕,出席论坛的有政界领导人、企业高管和超级富豪。
The yawning gap between rich and poor is likely to increase, the report says, and will lead to the world crowning its first trillionaire within a decade. At the same time, it warns, if current trends continue, world poverty will not be eradicated for another 229 years.
报告指出,全球贫富鸿沟很可能将继续扩大,首个万亿富翁可能会在十年内出现。与此同时,报告警告称,如果当前趋势持续下去,可能要再过229年全世界才能消除贫困。
