In a statement posted to Casa Real’s website, the King wrote that “Today, more than ever, citizens rightly demand that moral and ethical principles inspire — and exemplary preside over — our lives public.”

“The King, as the head of the State, has to be not only a reference but also a servant of that fair and legitimate demand of all citizens,” he added.

The release also revealed the Felipe‘s personal fortune is valued at $2.8 million.

The total amount is made up of $2.4 million held in securities and bank savings, plus a further $325,000 tied up in art, antiques, and jewelry.

This amount is not part of his salary, the Spanish Royal Family received a larger sum in 2018.

Still, Felipe‘s personal fortune and the amount the royal family receives yearly isn’t as much as some other royal families.
