Rahel Blocher
Rahel Blocher is one of the largest shareholders of Ems-Chemie, the giant Swiss polymer and chemical manufacturer. She began working at Clariant and Elma Electronic in 2004. Blocher headed Robinvest, an investment company by her father.
- Rahel Blocher owes her fortune to EMS-Chemie, the Swiss polymer and chemical giant that her family has run for decades.
- She received her stake when her father, Christoph Blocher, sold his shares to his children in 2004 to take a seat on the Swiss federal council.
- Her sisters, Magdalena and Miriam, and brother Markus, are also billionaires.
- Unlike Magdalena, who is the company’s longtime CEO, Rahel isn’t actively involved in EMS-Chemie’s operations.
- Instead she heads her father’s investment company, Robinvest, and sits on the board of his Schweizer Musikinsel Rheinau Foundation.
