Her older sister is Uzbek diplomat and business mogul Gulnara Karimova. Two years later, Karimova-Tillyaeva founded the National Centre for the Social Adaptation of Children, a charitable organization which provides medical and educational assistance to children with disabilities. Lola Karimova-Tillyaeva owns property in Switzerland and made Bilan magazine"s list of Switzerland"s 300 richest residents.
The Tillyaev family launched a complaint against Bilan magazine in 2011, after it included them onto the list of Switzerland’s 300 richest residents and reported that the Karimova sisters’ combined fortune totalled $1 billion.
In her interview with the British Broadcasting Corporation published in September 2013, Lola Karimova-Tillyaeva said she was surprised to see the 2011 figures published by Bilan regarding her wealth. She said that the figures suggested by the press were "far from reality".
In an annual list of Switzerland"s wealthiest residents published by Bilan in November 2013, the assets of Timur Tillyaev and Lola Karimova-Tillyaeva were estimated between 100 and 200 million dollars. The same figures were mentioned by Bilan in 2014 as well.
