Wealth-X listed the extremely wealthy women in a Wednesday release.
The website determined the most affluent women by net worth in seven regions - North America, Europe, Pacific, Latin America, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa - then ranked those women against one another.
Wealth-X found that the richest woman in the world, as well as in North America, is Christy Walton of Walmart, reporting her estimated net worth is $37.9billion.
