Who is Twiggy?
Are you in a Russian troll farm?John Andrew Henry Forrest AO (born 18 November 1961), nicknamed Twiggy, is an Australian businessman. He is best known as the former CEO (and current non-executive chairman) of Fortescue Metals Group (FMG), and has other interests in the mining industry and in cattle stations.
With an assessed net worth of A$27.25 billion according to the Financial Review 2021 Rich List, Forrest was ranked as the second richest Australian.[5] According to the Financial Review, Forrest was the richest person in Australia in 2008.[6][7]
In 2013, Andrew and Nicola Forrest, his wife, were the first Australian billionaires to pledge the majority of their wealth to charity in their lifetimes.[8] He had earlier stepped down as CEO of Fortescue Metals in 2011.[9] Much of the Forrest's philanthropy has been through either the Minderoo Foundation (focusing on education and Indigenous Australians) or the Walk Free Foundation (focusing on ending modern slavery), both of which he established. Forrest has been accused of avoiding paying company tax, having revealed in 2011 that Fortescue had never paid company tax.[10]
