Akshata Murty is a British-based Indian fashion designer. She is the daughter of N. R. Narayana Murthy, a founder of the Indian multi-national IT company Infosys, and holds a 0.93% share in the company. She is married to Rishi Sunak.
Murty studied economics and French at Claremont McKenna College in California, US, before moving on to the Fashion of Design and Merchandising in LA. She then completed her MBA at Stanford University, where she met Rishi Sunak.
The majority of her wealth comes from her controversial stake in Infosys, but she is also listed as a shareholder in at least six other companies, including Jamie Oliver’s Pizzeria, Wendy’s restaurants in India, and men’s fashion store New & Lingwood.
