SINGAPORE -- Chinese women make 57% of the total number of self-made female billionaires, a recent survey found, and the number is set to rise thanks to education, urbanization and technological advancements.
Hurun, a Shanghai-based research company, named 89 female billionaires this year, of whom 51 are Chinese, in a survey it released ahead of International Women's Day on Friday. Hurun did not issue a separate report on the number of male self-made billionaires.
