About John Hancock

John Hancock is the eldest child of Australia's richest woman, Gina Rinehart.

Together with his three sisters, Bianca, Hope and Ginia, he is the beneficiary of a trust that owns a large stake in mining giant Hancock Prospecting.

He is involved in a bitter court battle to take control of the trust from his mother and potentially increase their stake.

He is a senior adviser at Lind Partners LLC. He also runs his own private investment fund.

Hancock disclosed that as of September 2023 it had provided A$5.44 billion for dividends that will be paid after the dispute between Bianca and her brother John against their mother is resolved.
