Eduardo Saverin net worth

Forbes estimated his wealth at $42.9 billion on 25 September 2026.

Forbes estimated Eduardo Saverin's net worth at $42.9 billion as of 25 September 2026. That makes him the wealthiest Brazilian.

Much of that wealth began with his stake in Facebook, now Meta Platforms. He was a co-founder and handled the business side in the early days. In 2005 a stock purchase agreement became the center of a dispute, and Facebook sued him. He countersued, alleging misuse of company funds.

The two sides settled out of court in 2009. Saverin kept recognition as a Facebook co-founder and signed a non-disclosure agreement. That same year he moved to Singapore, where he is based.

In 2012, weeks before Facebook's IPO, he renounced his U.S. citizenship. Some observers have speculated this was meant to reduce capital gains tax.
