Amanda Louise Staveley is a British businesswoman with an estimated net worth of $170 million. Born on April 11, 1973 in Ripon, North Yorkshire, England, she is notable chiefly for her connections with Middle Eastern investors.

Staveley has clients who can write a check for £500m and want to buy Central London property. Unrest in the Arab world will only create more business for the restaurateur-turned-entrepreneur.

She did five deals in London in 2010 and with more in the pipeline, the 38-year-old has been included in the Sunday Times Rich List. Her net worth has increased over the years with the transactions and deals done through her firm, PCP Capital Partners.
