Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner are said to be worth up to $740 million. They are among the beneficiaries of the huge real estate and business empire as revealed on their financial disclosure. The couple's financial information showed their real net worth. Said forms exposed the astounding wealth of the pair who are also holding senior roles in the White House presently.
The couple's estimated combined wealth amounts to $12 billion. Basically, Ivanka Trump is now one of the federal employees of the White House and an assistant to the US president while her husband Kushner is currently the senior adviser of Trump. She will also be filing for her own financial disclosure information as required by the law, ABC News reported.
It was also revealed from a 54-page disclosure of Kushner that her wife Ivanka still holds a huge part of the Trump International Hotel in Washington. As of now, the Trump Organization is presently renting the hotel's building from the federal government which also employs his wife.
One ethic expert also suggests that the couple must free themselves from the involvement in any government matters that might affect or alter their business interests. Further, as Kushner accepted the job in the White House, he also promised to dissociate all his common stocks and foreign investments.
As per News Week, there were also democratic lawmakers who had expressed their concerns about the possible conflict of interest that might happen to Kushner and his wife just as how Donald Trump did being a New York real estate developer.
On the other hand, one of the White House offices which usually reviews financial disclosure already identified that there is about 25 percent of Trump White House staffs that have enormously complex reports. Office of the Government Ethics is also the office which helps the executive branch officials to avoid themselves from these possible conflicts.
