Property developer Harry Triguboff tops the 2016 BRW Rich 200 list for the first time, as a surging real estate market and the end of the resources boom change the face of wealth in Australia.

Mr Triguboff, owner and head of Meriton Group, is number one on the BRW Rich List with $10.62 billion wealth. It is the first time he has topped the list, having appeared in all 33 editions in its history.
