That’s around twice the estimated wealth of King Charles III.
Remember this whenever he talks about making “tough decisions” that working class people will pay for.
The UK’s youngest MP Nadia Whittome tweeted saying that the new British prime minister and his wife have a £730,000,000 ($844,522,400) worth of fortune. Meanwhile, King Charles III is believed to have a $500 million personal fortune, Forbes reported.
The fortune of Rishi Sunak and his wife came from her father N.R. Narayana Murthy, who is the cofounder and retired chairman of Indian tech giant Infosys, whose net worth is estimated by Forbes at $4.5 billion.
Forbes added that Rishi Sunak's wife Akshata Murthy owns a 0.93% stake in the publicly traded digital services.
