The 54-year-old founder and co-CEO of Bet365 got about £300 million ($400 million) in pay and dividends in the year to March 2021, according to a registry filing, taking her total pay from the online bookmaker’s past two financial years to more than $1 billion.
Coates's annual salary of £249 million alone makes her one of the world’s best-compensated bosses, even though it's down about 40% from the previous period. It also strengthens her status as the U.K.’s richest woman, putting her on track to rejoin the world’s 500 biggest fortunes.
