The wealthiest ever non-royal heads of state and government chiefs

Official salaries for world leaders range from the modest to the outstandingly generous. Many premiers past and present boasted outrageous wealth before they bagged the top job, while others got very rich at their nation's expense while in office. Read on to discover who makes the list as we countdown the peak net worth of the most affluent non-royal heads of state and government chiefs ever. Some historical sums are adjusted for inflation to give you an idea of the leaders' equivalent wealth today.

All dollar values in US dollars.

William Ruto: William Ruto: $299 million (£235m)

William Ruto became Kenya's youngest president in September 2022, succeeding Uhuru Kenyatta who also makes this list – more on him later. While he occupies the lowest spot in our round-up,  Ruto is easily still one of the wealthiest leaders with an estimated 43 billion shillings in 2022, equivalent to $299 million (£235m) today. Some sources claim his fortune is even larger at $450 million (£392.3m). 

Born into poverty, the president sold chickens as a child to make money and has styled himself as a "hustler", working his way up to bigger and better things. He owns hotels in Kenya's biggest cities, Mombasa and Mara, and he's also a shareholder in the Africa Merchant Assurance Company (AMACO).

Napoléon Bonaparte: $400 million (£285m)

Born into a relatively impoverished family in Corsica, Napoléon became the self-styled Emperor of France following the French Revolution, conquering vast swathes of Europe during the early 19th century. At the time, the rags-to-riches leader was said to be worth 100 million francs. A franc was worth 20 US cents back then, so Napoléon's fortune amounts to around $400 million (£285m) in today's money.

The president of oil-rich Equatorial Guinea since 1979, Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo has stayed quiet about his wealth, estimated by Forbes in 2006 at $600 million (£340m), which is the equivalent of $764 million (£543m) in today's money. The International Monetary Fund asked him to declare his net worth in order to secure further bailout money for his impoverished country, but failed to garner a response.

His son, former vice president Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue, took the opposite approach and flaunted his money lavishly, which turned out to be millions of dollars he had embezzled. Buying everything from a Malibu estate to Bugatti Veyrons, Bentleys and a Lamborghini, his luxury lifestyle didn’t last. Various governments seized those assets and other properties, and French courts sentenced him to three years in prison.
