Isabel Dos Santos's Footprint On The Angolan Economy

LUANDA, ANGOLA - JANUARY 30: A man uses his mobile phone at a rooftop bar on January 30, 2020 in Luanda, Angola. The Epic Sana is a landmark of Luanda, one of the countries top luxury hotels. Nestled right in in the heart of downtown, the hotel boasts several restaurants, covering a range of global cuisine, with many of the chefs coming from Portugal. Businesswoman Isabel dos Santos is the daughter of the former President of Angola - Jose Eduardo dos Santos. Forbes Magazine put her fortune at $2.1billion making her the richest woman in Africa. How she made her fortune has come under scrutiny as international media using information from the Luanda Leaks have revealed how, during his presidency, her father sanctioned her acquisition of stakes in Angolan industries including banking, diamonds, oil and telecoms. In December 2019 the Angolan Courts froze Dos Santos's stakes in Angolan companies as it bought a case against her regarding funds owed to the state oil firm. (Photo by Luke Dray/Getty Images)
