China has the second-highest number of billionaires in the world, according to Forbes magazine's annual list published on Monday.

Forbes' 2013 list of the world's richest people includes 122 billionaires from the Chinese mainland, 39 from Hong Kong and 26 from Taiwan.

Last year, 95 billionaires from the Chinese mainland made the list, down from 110 in 2011, due to depressed stock prices.
