Maria Ines de Lafuente Lacroze Net Worth
Maria Ines de Lafuente Lacroze Net Worth: Maria Ines de Lafuente Lacroze was an Argentine businesswoman who passed away in 2015 with a net worth of $1.2 billion. She is the only daughter and sole heir of Argentine “Cement Lady” Amalia Lacroze, Telford Tabat. The daughter of one of Argentina’s richest and most powerful women, Maria Ines de Lafuente inherited a cement empire founded in 1926 by her stepfather (Amalia’s second husband).
The cement company Loma Negra became Argentina’s leader in cement and concrete production in the 1950s and 1960s. After Alfredo’s death in 1976, Maria’s mother took over the cement business, earning her the nickname “Lady Cement”. Unfortunately, due to family mismanagement and huge foreign debt, Loma Negra was sold by Brazilian group Camargo Correa for slightly more than US$1 billion in May 2005. However, Amalia Lacroze de Fortabat left an estimated estate after her death in February 2012 at $902 million, a figure that does not include her art collection worth more than $200 million. Maria Ines de Lafuente died on September 11, 2015.
