We take the shares Safra Catz 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.
Safra Catz was born in Holon, Israel, in 1961 and moved to Brookline, Massachusetts, as a young child. She studied at the University of Pennsylvania and earned a law degree from Penn, then spent more than a decade as an investment banker before changing fields.
She joined Oracle in 1999 and became Larry Ellison’s closest operational lieutenant, running finance and orchestrating the aggressive string of acquisitions, starting with PeopleSoft, that reshaped the company. She served as president, then co-chief executive, and became sole chief executive in 2019.
Catz is a hired executive, though an unusually powerful and long-serving one. Her Oracle stake came from two decades of compensation, the anchor of the figure here.

*Estimated net worth is a third-party figure from Forbes (2026), not our own calculation; it is an estimate that changes with the market.

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.
