Mr Sunak became the first front-line politician to feature on the Sunday Times’ annual wealth list in its 35-year history when he appeared on it as chancellor in the 2022 edition.<\/p>\n

At that point, the family’s wealth was estimated at \u00a3730m.<\/p>\n

Mr Sunak worked as a hedge fund manager before entering politics and is personally wealthy, listing \u00a32.2m in income, earnings, and capital gains last year in his latest tax summary.<\/a><\/p>\n

But he owes his place at the top table of wealthy Britons mainly to his wife’s Infosys shareholding, estimated to be worth \u00a3590m last year. <\/p>\n

Downing Street declined to comment on Mr Sunak’s latest appearance in the rich list, saying it was a “private family matter”.<\/p>\n

But the PM’s official spokesman added: “When he’s been asked this question before he’s responded and asked that people judge him by his actions, including to support livelihoods during the pandemic though the furlough scheme as an example.<\/p>\n

“That’s his focus and his priority and he should be judged on that.” <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
