Sunday Times apologises for Rich List mix-up

By paulmcnally

The Sunday Times has apologised after it miscalculated the net worth of British architect Richard Rogers in its annual Rich List.

“We wrongly assumed that the stake held by Richard Rogers in Rogers Stirk Harbour & Partners is worth £40m,” the paper said.

“We are now aware that … Lord Rogers only owns two ordinary shares with a nominal value of £1 each.”

The paper has withdrawn the entry for Lord and Lady Rogers from its website, and said next year’s Rich List will reflect this.
