Victoria Goh is a Singaporean billionaire and a key member of the Goh family, one of Asia’s wealthiest industrial lineages. She is the daughter of Goh Hup Jin, the Chairman of Nippon Paint South-east Asia (Nipsea), and the granddaughter of the late paints tycoon Goh Cheng Liang.

Victoria entered the global rich list in late 2024 through an unprecedented succession maneuver. Her grandfather transferred a 55% stake in the Tokyo-listed Nippon Paint Holdings directly to six of his grandchildren. This move granted each grandchild, including Victoria and her sisters Charlotte and Henrietta, an ownership stake in Nipsea International valued at over US$1 billion each.

• Core Asset: Major stake in Nippon Paint Holdings.
• Inheritance: Direct transfer of wealth worth US$1.1 billion in 2024.
• Family Legacy: Part of the family that has consistently ranked as the richest in Singapore.

While the second generation of the Goh family, specifically her father Goh Hup Jin, continues to manage the daily executive strategy and maintain a majority of voting rights, Victoria represents the rising third generation of the dynasty.

Her structural position is as a significant shareholder in the family’s vast holding companies, which dominate the paints and coatings industry in the Asia-Pacific region. The family continues a strict culture of discretion, with Victoria and her siblings maintaining a very low public profile despite their immense wealth.

• Key Role: Long-term steward of family industrial interests.
• Wealth Context: Reached billionaire status in late 2024 as part of a US$6 billion grandchildren's wealth transfer.
