According to the Financial Review, Forrest was the richest person in Australia in 2008. In 2013, Andrew and Nicola Forrest, his wife, were the first Australian billionaires to pledge the majority of their wealth to charity in their lifetimes. He had earlier stepped down as CEO of Fortescue Metals in 2011. Much of the Forrest's philanthropy has been through either the Minderoo Foundation (focusing on education and Indigenous Australians) or the Walk Free Foundation (focusing on ending modern slavery), both of which he established. Forrest has been accused of avoiding paying company tax, having revealed in 2011 that Fortescue had never paid company tax. In 2022, Andrew Forrest has filed a criminal complaint against Facebook, alleging that the corporation failed to prohibit the use of his image in scam adverts associating his image with investments in cryptocurrencies. The case will be heard in the Western Australian Magistrates Court on 28 March. (en)
