Acerca de
Iris Balbina Fontbona González, born in 1942/1943 in Antofagasta, Chile, inherited a massive fortune from her husband Andrónico Luksic Abaroa upon his death in 2005, becoming one of the world's richest women with a net worth exceeding $25 billion. She oversees family control of Antofagasta PLC, a leading global copper producer, and Quiñenco, which manages Banco de Chile, CCU brewery, and shipping giant CSAV. Her sons, including Jean Paul and Andrónico Luksic, handle day-to-day operations in mining and other sectors. While her empire is primarily Chile-based with international holdings like Croatian hotels, no direct professional or residential connections to Miami or South Florida are documented in available records. She maintains a low-profile, hermetic lifestyle focused on family business stewardship.
