Fredriksen started as a telex messenger at broker Blehr & Tenvig with a zero fortune when he was 16 years old. Norwegian magazine Kapital has published its annual list of the nation's richest people and estimates Fredriksen is worth NOK 113bn ($14bn), double anybody else on the list. Fre Hapag-Lloyd records strong start and sticks with positive full-year outlook Charter rates, currency movements and an increase in cargo have driven German container line Hapag-Lloyd to a better than expected first quarter performance. Its strong start to the year is coupled with a positive outlook for the container market, despite questions about world economic growth.
