After Nobel's death, the relevant institutions established the Nobel Foundation, and began to manage it on 190 1, and held the first award ceremony in the same year. The relevant institutions have further stipulated the Nobel Prize: each prize can be shared by two young winners (no more than three); If no one wins the prize in that year, the bonus can be reserved for the next year; Each bonus is paid at least once every five years. In fact, awards have been given once a year since 190 1. It was only during the Second World War (1940 ~ 1942) that it stopped for several years because of the war. According to the regulations, 65,438+00% of the fund interest should be withdrawn from the fund every year to join the fund, and some unpaid bonuses should also be incorporated into the fund, so the number of funds is increasing. The bonus amount in the same year is the same, and the bonus amount in different years changes, which mainly depends on the market situation, because these bonuses are paid by the annual income of the fund capital.
This year's Nobel Prize is 6.5438+million Swedish kronor, which is about 6.5438+0.4 million US dollars. According to the original intention of Nobel Prize, the ideal amount of Nobel Prize should guarantee a professor to continue his research for 20 years without salary. According to the data released by the Nobel Prize official website, the amount of the Nobel Prize in 190 1 year is1508.72 million Swedish kronor, which is equivalent to the salary of a professor for 20 years at that time. Since then, the bonus amount has been shrinking, from14.184,700 SEK to14.135,800 SEK. Until 1923, the face value of the Nobel Prize amount dropped to the lowest in history, which was 1 14935 kronor. Since then, although the amount of the Nobel Prize has expanded year by year, it has not reached the level of 190 1 due to several devaluations of the Swedish krona. 1969 When the Nobel Prize in Economics was first awarded, the prize amount was 375,000 Swedish kronor.
