Biography

Martin Haefner's fortune largely stems from his former stake in IT management software maker CA Technologies, acquired by Broadcom in July 2018.

He inherited half of his father Walter's stake in CA Technologies when he died in June 2012, then the world's oldest billionaire at 101.

He also inherited part of car dealer AMAG, which sells brands including Volkswagen, Audi, Bentley and Porsche.

His sister, Eva Maria Bucher-Haefner, inherited equal stakes in CA Technologies and AMAG. He bought her stake in AMAG in 2018.

Martin co-owns the Bellerive Hotel in Lausanne, Switzerland, with his sister.
