Person profile
Co-founder, chairman, and chief executive of Robinhood Markets
"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, Vlad Tenev's estimated net worth is about $5.9B(5.9 billion US dollars). That places Vlad Tenev at #26 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.
Vlad Tenev co-founded Robinhood in 2013 and has run it since its 2021 listing, steering the commission-free brokerage into crypto, retirement accounts, and prediction markets. His estimate values his high-vote Class B shares at the Class A price using his July 2026 Form 4.
Tenev and Baiju Bhatt built high-frequency trading software before launching Robinhood's mobile app in 2015. The company listed in July 2021 and joined the S&P 500 in September 2025.
The estimate tracks Robinhood's share price. Scheduled sales convert Class B shares into Class A shares before they are sold, and each step appears in his filings.
Vlad Tenev's estimate declined mainly because Robinhood Markets, Inc. shares decreased from the prior comparable close.
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.
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.
The timeline runs from June 12, 2026 to September 4, 2026; the latest estimate is higher than the first point. Points before August 20, 2026 are labeled modeled reconstructions: today's reviewed ownership records applied to the closing prices of each earlier market date. Published history begins August 20, 2026 and grows one point per completed market date.
