Newly appointed Berkshire Hathaway vice chairman Ajit Jain not only oversees all of Berkshire’s insurance operations, he has a significant stake in the conglomerate.
Berkshire’s regulatory filing this past Thursday revealed that Jain has roughly $109 million in Berkshire stock.
Jain owns $21.7 million of Berkshire stock, and also indirectly owns $87.5 million of Berkshire stock held by his wife, a family non-profit foundation and two family trusts.
The filing makes clear that Jain needs to not only stay in Warren Buffett’s good graces, he definitely need to be good to his wife.
