- Assets disclosed

- Not shown
- Trades disclosed
- None
- Took office
- Feb 2021
Assets disclosed: on the 2025 termination filing. The values on Buttigieg’s latest financial disclosure to the Office of Government Ethics, added up as ranges, because the form gives ranges and never exact values.
Outside pay: shown for the current administration only. What the latest form reports was paid to the official to the dollar, outside the public salary, which is set by law.
Trades disclosed: in the filings read through Oct 24, 2026. Transactions on 278-T reports and annual reports, which include a spouse’s and dependent children’s.
Took office: no leaving date on record.
Outside pay is kept for the current administration only. The Office of Government Ethics drops officials from its public portal after they leave, and by law it destroys most reports six years after they are filed. We saved some earlier reports before they went, but no complete set for any earlier administration survives, and a partial record shown as if it were whole would mislead.
Start date: the cabinet record.

Transactions an official reports on a periodic transaction report within 45 days, and those the annual report lists. Not every official trades: many hold funds, bonds or a blind trust, which make no transaction of this kind.
Net worth
Reported as ranges, so no single net worth
- Disclosed assets
- $69K to $214K
- Disclosed liabilities
- $175K to $415K
A net worth for Pete Buttigieg cannot be computed from this filing: values are given as ranges, some items carry no value, and a home kept for personal use is not reported.
- Disclosed assets:
- as ranges on 10 line items, plus 29 without a dollar value
- Disclosed liabilities:
- as ranges on 4 line items, plus 13 without a dollar value
These are the lower and upper bounds of the ranges on the filing, not a market valuation. Assets and liabilities are shown separately and are never netted into a net worth. How these bands are read
The form lists each debt over $10,000 owed at any time during the period it covers, including one repaid before the period ended. A few kinds are left off, such as a debt to a close relative. The filer’s own notes on these debts:
- Stafford loans serviced by Nelnet. (the loans in lines 2-14 aggregate to more than the reporting threshold, but balances of the individual loans are below the reporting threshold) (Spouse): “These loans were previously serviced by Great Lakes Higher Education Corp.”
Kept since Aug 28, 2026. Federal law generally requires a filing to be destroyed six years after it was received, unless it is needed in an ongoing investigation.
Disclosures: Office of Government Ethics, read through Oct 24, 2026. Latest filing: 2025 termination filing.
