List of richest literary prizes
Many literary awards give significant remunerations. This is a list of active literary awards from around the world with a prize of at least  or equivalent. Although global in scope and comprising over 35 awards, most of the prizes are in only four currencies: United Arab Emirates dirham, Swedish krona, Euro, and United States dollar. Inclusion criteria 
The award is active and is primarily focused on writing (novels, poetry, non-fiction etc..)
The remuneration is equal to or greater than US$100,000 or equivalent. Because fluctuating exchange rates move non-US dollar denominated awards in and out of the list over time, awards near this amount are also included. The award is for any genre of writing (fiction, journalism, etc.) or award type (book or author). The listed remuneration is for a single winner or co-winners. The list does not aggregate the total value of runners-up and other prizes within the same award. For example, the Prime Minister's Literary Awards is listed as A$100,000 even though it is composed of four prizes totalling A$400,000. Prizes
