World leaders' annual salaries show vast global disparities
A new report from the World Population Review unveils eye-opening figures about the annual salaries of heads of state across 40 selected countries. The data provides insight into how national leaders are compensated and how that compensation compares to their countries' economic realities. At the top of the chart, Saudi Arabia’s head of state stands out with a huge $9.6 billion annual salary. Not far behind is the United Arab Emirates (UAE) at $4.61 billion, followed by Kuwait with $165 million and Monaco at $52 million. These figures, mostly from oil-rich monarchies or high-net-worth microstates, dwarf the salaries of leaders in Western democracies.
