Former British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, and his wife, Akshata Murty, have a combined net worth of about $871 million, according to The Sunday Times Rich List.

Overview

  • Sunak took up the senior adviser position on July 8, marking his first major private-sector appointment since resigning as UK prime minister in July 2024.
  • In a part-time capacity, he will work with Goldman Sachs leaders to advise global clients on macroeconomic and geopolitical challenges.
  • He has pledged to donate all earnings from the role to the Richmond Project, his numeracy-focused charity for UK children.
  • The Advisory Committee on Business Appointments approved the move with a one-year ban on lobbying the UK government and advising foreign governments or sovereign wealth funds.
  • Sunak’s return completes a full-circle journey from summer intern and analyst at Goldman (2000–04) through top government posts and academia to a strategic private-sector role.
