'''Miroslav Mišković''' ([[Serbian language|Serbian]] [[Cyrillic]]: '''Мирослав Мишковић''') (born [[July 5]], [[1945]] in [[Kruševac]], [[Serbia]], [[Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia|Democratic Federal Yugoslavia]]) is a [[Serbia]]n [[businessman]], the owner of [[Delta Holding]]. He is considered to be the second richest person in Serbia, behind [[Philip Zepter]], with a wealth estimated at approximately [[Dollar|$]] 2 billion as of [[2007]], according to the list of 100 wealthiest persons of the post-communist countries made by [[Poland|Polish]] magazine ''[[Wprost]]''.<ref>[http://najbogatsieuropejczycy.wprost.pl The wealthiest in post-communist countries]</ref> Mišković holds 42nd place on this list, but is fifth among the [[tycoon]]s outside the former [[Soviet Union]]. According to the [[List of billionaires (2007) 100-946|2007 list of the richest people in the world]], published annually by [[Forbes|Forbes magazine]], Mišković is a newcomer to this list, taking the 891st spot, with a net worth of [[Dollar|$]]1 billion. He is the first person from Serbia to enter this list.<ref>[http://www.forbes.com/lists/2007/10/07billionaires_Miroslav-Miskovic_CVDZ.html 2007 Forbes' annual billionaires' list]</ref>

Mišković was born in [[Kruševac]], where he graduated from high school before moving to [[Belgrade]] and getting his degree in [[economics]] in [[1971]]. Afterwards, he worked at [[Jugobanka]] and [[Trayal]] in Kruševac until [[1977]], when he moved to [[Župa Chemical Industries]]. There, he became financial director in [[1984]] and [[chief executive officer|chief executive]] in [[1987]], holding this position until [[1990]], when he was appointed a Serbian deputy prime minister. Mišković held office for only six months. Meanwhile, Mišković founded Delta M (Delta M being a sort of abbreviation of his initials - ''double M''), a company that became very successful in the following years, during the [[Yugoslav wars]] and under the regime of [[Slobodan Milošević]]. Soon afterwards, he launched [[Delta banka]] (sold to [[Banca Intesa]] in [[2005]]), that was to become the first part of Mišković's extremely successful [[Delta Holding]] corporation that is involved in agribusiness, retail sales, distribution, financial brokerage, real estate development and insurance.

Mišković's connection to [[Slobodan Milošević]] was never obvious, except for his short stint as deputy prime minister in 1990. After the [[5th October Overthrow|overthrow of Milošević's regime]], Mišković was linked to [[Dušan Mihajlović (politician)|Dušan Mihajlović]], the interior minister at the time, and the other leaders of the [[Democratic Opposition of Serbia]] coalition. Mišković is today considered to be an important political figure with a great deal of influence on the leading politicians in Serbia.

Mišković was abducted on [[April 9]], [[2001]], but was released the next day, when the ransom (estimated at about [[German mark|DM]] 7 million) was paid 18 hours later. After the assassination of Serbian Prime Minister [[Zoran Đinđić]] [[March 12]], [[2003]], the abduction of Mišković was attributed to the same group that has been convicted of the death of the prime minister, indicating a possibility of other connections between the two crimes.
