A) James Dimon of JPMorgan
B) Jensen Huang of Nvidia
C) Stephen Schwarzman of Blackstone
D) Warren Buffett of Berkshire Hathaway
ANSWER:
D) Warren Buffett, who has been CEO of Berkshire Hathaway for 51 years. He is followed by Alan B. Miller of Universal Health Services, with 42 years, and Stephen Schwarzman of Blackstone, who has been at the helm of the investment firm for 36 years. As in other aspects of the corporate world, the length of time CEOs remain at large companies has varied significantly in recent years: while in 2000 CEOs had an average tenure of more than 10 years, today they have around 5. This is a significant finding, as analysis of these companies indicates that there is a direct correlation between a CEO’s tenure in the role and higher returns for investors, according to Visual Capitalist.
