Warren Buffett will remain chairman of the board of directors at Berkshire Hathaway when Greg Abel succeeds the billionaire investor as the company’s CEO at the end of the year.
Berkshire’s board of directors voted unanimously on Sunday to appoint Abel as CEO effective on Jan. 1, 2026, Berkshire Hathaway said in a news release on Monday. The release stated that Buffett would remain as chairman.
Buffett, 94, announced his plans to step down as CEO on Saturday at Berkshire’s annual shareholders meeting in Omaha, Nebraska.
“I think the time has arrived where Greg should become the chief executive of the company at year end,” Buffett said before receiving a several-minute standing ovation in honor of his decades of service.
Abel, 62, has been vice chair of Berkshire since 2018.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, who was re-elected over the weekend, said on Monday he had a “warm conversation” with President Donald Trump about tariffs and the AUKUS defense pact.
“I had a warm and positive conversation with President Trump … and I thank him for his very warm message of congratulations,” Albanese said Monday during a media briefing.
He continued: “We talked about how AUKUS and tariffs will continue to engage. We will engage with each other on a face-to-face basis at some time in the future, and I thank him for reaching out in such a positive way.”
Trump imposed a 10% tariff on the country in April, which led Albanese to describe the decision as “not the act of a friend.”

President Donald Trump hit the motion picture industry hard on Sunday by announcing a 100% tariff on “any and all movies” produced outside of the United States
In a Truth Social post, Trump said the “movie Industry in America is DYING a very fast death.”
“Other Countries are offering all sorts of incentives to draw our filmmakers and studios away from the United States,” the president wrote on the platform. “Hollywood, and many other areas within the U.S.A., are being devastated.”
The Republican said that his plans to institute a tariff are in the works, and he authorized the Department of Commerce and the United States Trade Representative “to immediately begin the process of instituting a 100% Tariff on any and all Movies coming into our Country that are produced in Foreign Lands.”
“WE WANT MOVIES MADE IN AMERICA, AGAIN!” Trump concluded.
