Biography

Eyal Ofer is the chairman of the Monaco-based Ofer Global, active in shipping, real estate, technology, banking, energy and other investments.

Ofer is one of two sons of shipping magnate Sammy Ofer, who died in 2011 and was once Israel's richest man.

The elder Ofer brother has expanded these holdings significantly. Through Zodiac Group, his shipping company, he now owns and operates roughly 200 ships.

His Global Holdings real estate portfolio spans 120 properties around the world, including 15 Central Park West and 50 United Nations Plaza in Manhattan, and Vogue House in London.

Eyal's other assets include the VC tech fund O.G. Venture Partners, O.G. Energy and stakes in the public companies Mizrahi Tefahot Bank and Royal Caribbean Cruises.

He and his family also started the Eyal & Marilyn Ofer Family Foundation, which supports education, healthcare and the arts.

About

Eyal and his brother Idan split their father's art holdings, a rare collection rumored to include pieces by Van Gogh and Picasso.

Ofer's four children--Daniel, Jonathan, David and Olivia--are all involved in the various divisions of Ofer Global.
