Warren Buffett, one of the world’s richest individuals is the chairman, president and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway.
The company oversees and manages a number of subsidiary companies; wholly owns GEICO, BNSF, Lubrizol, Dairy Queen, Fruit of the Loom, Helzberg Diamonds and NetJets, owns half of Heinz and has significant holdings in American Express, Coca-Cola, Wells Fargo, and IBM.
Total assets in 2013: $484,931,000,000 dollars – or almost half a trillion.
