" Abel's $25M paycheck in same league as other S&P 500 CEOs but falls short of what nation's highest-paid corporate titans are getting
Greg Abel's annual cash salary for 2026 as the new CEO of Berkshire Hathaway is $25 million, a 19% increase from the $21 million he got in 2024 as the company's vice chairman for non-insurance operations. (Abel's 2025 salary has not yet been publicly disclosed.)
Berkshire's filing this week doesn't say anything about additional compensation for Abel, but the company has said it will never use its stock to pay employees.
After crunching a lot of proxy numbers from MyLogIQ, The Wall Street Journal reports Abel's salary "would be the highest a chief executive running a current S&P 500 company has earned in any single year between 2010 and 2024."
