Carlos Slim
Chairman and Chief Executive Telmex
Carlos Slim Helú is a Mexican business magnate, investor, and philanthropist. From
2010 to 2013, Slim was ranked as the richest person in the world. Known as the
"Warren Buffett of Mexico", he derived his fortune from his extensive holdings in a
considerable number of Mexican companies through his conglomerate, Grupo
Carso. As of 3 November 2015 he was #2 on Forbes list of billionaires, with net
worth estimated at US$77.1 billion.
Slim is the chairman and chief executive of telecommunications companies Telmex
and América Móvil, Latin America's largest mobile-phone carrier, which accounted for around $49 billion of
Slim's wealth by the end of 2010.
Slim's total conglomerate comprises a diverse portfolio of businesses from a wide array of industries that
include telecommunications, education, health care, industrial manufacturing, food and beverages, real estate,
airlines, media, energy, hospitality, entertainment, technology, retail, sports and financial services.
Slim has overseen a vast business empire that is influential in every sector of the Mexican economy and
accounts for 40% of the listings on the Mexican Stock Exchange, while his net worth is equivalent to about 6
percent of Mexico’s gross domestic product..
Early life and Education
Slim always knew he wanted to be a businessman and began to develop his business and investment acumen at
a young age. He received business lessons from his early childhood where his father Julian, often taught the
young Carlos the value of financial literacy, management and accountability, teaching him how to read financial
statements as well as the importance of keeping accurate financial records, a practice that Slim carries on to this
day.
Slim's first investment began at the age of 11, when he invested in a government savings bond that taught him
about the concept of compound interest. He eventually saved every financial and business transaction he made
into his personal ledger book which he keeps to this day. At the age of 12, he made his first stock purchase, by
purchasing shares in a Mexican bank. By the age of 15, Slim had become a shareholder in Mexico’s largest
bank. At the age of 17, he earned 200 pesos a week working for his father's company. He went on to study civil
engineering at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, where he also concurrently taught algebra and
linear programming, which meant that he was both a student and professor.
Though Slim was a civil engineering major because of his fascination for numbers, he also displayed an interest
in economics. He took economics courses in Chile once he finished his engineering degree. Graduating as a
civil engineering major, Slim has stated that his mathematical prowess and his background of linear
programming was a key factor in helping him gain an edge in the business world, especially when reading
financial statements.
