WHAT WE ESTIMATE
varies
Past cash compensation, sold shares, real estate, and other public holdings — estimable from records, but not exact.
WHAT CAN’T BE KNOWN
private
Private company stakes, trusts, cash, debts, and undisclosed assets. Anyone publishing these as a single number is guessing.

HOW THIS IS CALCULATED
We take the shares Michael Miebach reports owning in their most recent SEC Form 4 and multiply by the latest share price. That gives a stake value you can check against the filing itself. Everything beyond that stake — real estate, private holdings, cash, past compensation — is estimated or simply not public, and we say so rather than roll it into one number.
BIOGRAPHY
Michael Miebach was born in Bavaria, Germany, in 1968, and built an international banking career before payments. He studied business at the University of Passau, then worked at Citibank in Frankfurt and later ran the Middle East and North Africa region for Barclays.
He joined Mastercard in 2010 to lead its business across the Middle East and Africa from Dubai, rose to chief product officer and then president, and became chief executive at the start of 2021, succeeding Ajay Banga. He pushed the company into real-time payments, open banking, and digital identity.
Miebach is a hired executive. His stake in Mastercard came from a decade of compensation, the anchor of the figure here.

Ranked by filing-verified stake

Share counts are the latest reported on SEC filings and change as the executive trades; the price is the last close, so the stake value moves with the market.
