Most of Carlos "Beto" Sicupira's wealth comes from his shares of Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world's largest brewer, in which he owns about a 3% stake.
His fellow shareholders at AB Inbev include longtime Brazilian business partners Jorge Paulo Lemann and Marcel Herrmann Telles, both billionaires.
In 2016 AB InBev completed its nearly $100 billion acquisition of SABMiller, acquiring brands including Pilsner Urquell and Foster's Lager.
Sicupira and his partners also own stakes in listed Restaurant Brands International, parent of Burger King and Canadian coffee chain Tim Hortons. In 2013, the trio's private equity firm 3G Capital and Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway bought H.J. Heinz & Company. Heinz later merged with Kraft.
