Limitations of Information

Users should be aware that:

  • Billionaire wealth is complex and influenced by many factors beyond what we present.
  • Our historical data shows trends but doesn't guarantee future performance.
  • Real billionaire net worth can differ significantly from estimates.
  • Wealth composition and sources may be more complex than shown.
  • Tax implications, debts, and other factors affect actual net worth.

Net Worth Methodology & Sources

Our billionaire wealth estimates are assembled using methodologies adopted by leading publications such as Forbes and Bloomberg. Public company stakes are valued based on recent stock prices and disclosed ownership percentages. For private companies, we apply revenue multiples and peer‑company comparisons, adjusting for liquidity and country risk. Tangible assets—including real estate, yachts, aircraft, art, and cash—are added where reliable public estimates exist, and known liabilities are subtracted.

Because these calculations rely on publicly available information and modeling, the figures should be regarded as informed estimates rather than precise valuations. Assets may be undisclosed, valuations may differ among sources, and net worth can change rapidly. The baseline data used throughout this site is from February 2026.

Country Rankings & Data Limitations

The lists of billionaires by country are derived from external reports and may not be comprehensive. For example, 2025 reports suggested that the United States had about 902 billionaires, China approximately 450, and India around 205. These numbers are provided for context and can fluctuate as new wealth is created and market conditions evolve.

We present these figures to provide readers with a general sense of global wealth distribution. However, because billionaires’ fortunes and the number of ultra‑wealthy individuals change frequently, the country rankings displayed on this site may become outdated. Always consult current sources for the most up‑to‑date information.
