Why two dates?

"Valued as of" is the effective date of the market closes, exchange rates, and filings inside the estimate. "Sources checked" is when the pipeline last verified those sources successfully. A weekend check can confirm a Friday valuation without inventing weekend movement.

As of September 4, 2026, Sergey Brin's estimated net worth is about $241.6B(241.6 billion US dollars). That places Sergey Brin at #3 among the people Net Worth Leader currently tracks.

This is an estimate of assets minus documented liabilities. It is not a cash balance, and many holdings may be restricted, pledged, illiquid, or difficult to value.

Summary

Sergey Brin co-founded Google with Larry Page and remains an Alphabet director and controlling shareholder. Unlike his co-founder, Brin files Forms 4 frequently because he makes regular gifts of stock, so his Class B and Class C counts are current to within days.

How the fortune was built

Brin co-developed Google's search technology at Stanford, led its technical and moonshot efforts, and stepped back from executive roles in 2019. He has given away large blocks of Alphabet stock in recent years while keeping the majority of his founder stake, and has returned informally to work on Alphabet's artificial intelligence models.

What drives the estimate

The estimate moves with Alphabet's Class A and Class C share prices. Periodic gifts lower the count in steps visible in his filings.

Why the estimate changed

Sergey Brin's estimate declined mainly because Alphabet Inc. shares decreased from the prior comparable close.

  • Alphabet Class B common stock held directly (converts one-for-one into Class A): estimated decrease of 1.4 billion US dollars (market price)
  • Alphabet Class A common stock held directly: estimated decrease of 150,625 US dollars (market price)
  • Alphabet Class C capital stock held directly: estimated decrease of 1.4 billion US dollars (market price)

A one-day estimate change is not the same as income, profit, or a realized gain or loss.

Liabilities without a documented value are never shown as zero; they are simply not included, and that limitation is part of source coverage below.

Source coverage and uncertainty

100.0% of this profile's modeled gross value is supported by Tier 1 or Tier 2 evidence (primary filings, official documents, licensed market data, or audited accounts). The profile carries a strong coverage label.

No meaningful range beyond the central estimate is supported for this profile, so only the central value is published. Unknown liabilities are not evidence that no liabilities exist. No personal liability is documented for this profile, so none is deducted.
