Dmitry Evgenevich Rybolovlev is a Russian oligarch, entrepreneur, and the majority owner of the football club AS Monaco F.C. His wealth was founded in the chemical and fertilizer industry. Born in Perm, Russia, in 1966, his parents were doctors who worked at the Perm State Medical University. Rybolovlev himself graduated from the Perm Medical Institute, trained as a Medical Doctor.

His career pivoted dramatically during the final years of the Soviet Union when a doctor's income could no longer comfortably support a family. In 1990, he began his first business: a small medical enterprise he set up with his father. He quickly recognized the immense opportunity in the post-Soviet privatization and secured one of Russia's first brokerage licenses in 1992, positioning him for the high-stakes commodity privatization era.

Dmitry Rybolovlev's career is defined by his successful consolidation of the Russian fertilizer industry. In 1995, he became Chairman of the fertilizer producer Uralkali, Russia's largest producer of potassium fertilizers. He gained a controlling stake through strategic acquisitions during the turbulent privatization period of the 1990s.

The pinnacle of his financial career was the sale of his majority share of Uralkali in 2010 for $6.5 billion to three Kremlin-linked oligarchs, making him one of the wealthiest men in Russia. Following this massive exit, Rybolovlev relocated to Monaco and diversified his fortune into high-end, global luxury assets: he acquired the football club AS Monaco F.C. in 2011, purchased an $88 million apartment in New York City, and bought an oceanfront mansion in Palm Beach from Donald Trump for $95 million (which he later sold). His wealth has been marked by a record-breaking divorce settlement ($605 million) and a nine-year-long feud with art dealer Yves Bouvier over alleged art fraud.

Dmitry Rybolovlev's social impact is structural, stemming from his involvement in AS Monaco F.C., which is a major civic and cultural asset in Monaco and French football. His investment ensures the club's financial stability and competitive success. His personal philanthropy, often managed through trusts, supports various educational and community initiatives.

His structural contribution is tied to the successful consolidation of the fertilizer industry. His purchase and subsequent sale of Leonardo da Vinci's Salvator Mundi also generated immense media attention for the global art market.

Dmitry Rybolovlev maintains the highly professional, composed style of a European oligarch. His attire is consistently formal and high-quality, favoring tailored suits. His aesthetic is one of stability and quiet, yet immense, authority, reflecting his high-stakes investments and residence in Monaco.

His luxury is immense and global, defined by his acquisition of exclusive assets like the Greek island of Skorpios and high-end real estate. His life is dedicated to leveraging his capital for strategic acquisitions in sports and art, balancing finance with high-profile cultural influence.
