1、公司商务机开销最大的 CEOMany chief executives take advantage of their rights to the company jet. Who wouldnt want their very own airborne steed at the ready? But should shareholders be footing the bill?Since 2008, this particular perk has been one of the most closely examined and widely criticized. The three
2、most common reasons given by companies for personal use of the corporate jet are: executive security, board mandate, and, quite simply, convenience.How many big corporate CEOs actually get access to the company jet? Pay research company Equilarrecently found that of the 95 public Fortune 100 compani
3、es, 65 CEOs were either eligible for or received some form of jet perk. Equilar noted that two CEOs who did not have the perk were running airlines, where complimentary air travel is typically provided to all employees. The average annual cost of the perk, at least at the companies that disclosed th
4、e figures, was $141,187, which typically represented about two-fifths of total perk spending.So, which CEOs make the most of their jet perks? The five most expensive CEOs to fly around were Brian Moynihan at Bank of America BAC -1.39% , James McNerney at Boeing BA -1.19% , Jeffrey Immelt at General
5、Electric GE -0.85% , Robert Iger at Disney DIS -1.05% , and Ryan Lance at ConocoPhillips COP -0.43% .Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihans jetting around cost the company $448,251 in 2013. Spokesperson Lawrence Grayson said that Moynihan reimburses the company for personal use of the aircraft. So, whe
6、re did this almost half a million dollars come from? Grayson explained that the SEC has a broader view of personal usage than, say, the IRS. So, for example, if Moynihan flies to California on business and then the jet must return to the banks North Carolina headquarters to fly another executive on
7、business elsewhere, that return flight cost is attributed to Moynihan. While Moynihan does use the corporate jet for personal travel, none of those costs is disclosed because he pays for them himself. The bank noted that it did not feel that there was a security need for this, but cited efficiency.
8、Since it doesnt cost the shareholders anything, they will probably agree with this justification.Boeings James McNerney non-business corporate jet travel (on a Boeing 737 Business Jet, naturally) cost the company a total of $373,137 in 2013. A company spokesman, John Dern, confirmed that requiring t
9、he CEO to travel on the corporate jet for personal trips is a “longstanding policy that helps manage safety, security and productivity.” McNerney sits on the boards of IBM and Proctor & Gamble, and travel to board meetings represented almost $68,000 of the total cost.The cost of flying General Elect
10、ric CEO Jeffrey Immelt on personal travel was $343,121. GEs proxy statement indicates that these “amounts reflect the incremental cost to GE for personal use of company aircraft.” It also states that the “aggregate incremental cost, if any, of travel by the executives family or other guests when acc
11、ompanying the executive is also included.” GE doesnt give a reason for the perk. The proxy simply states, “We provide our named executives with other benefits that we believe are reasonable, competitive and consistent with our overall executive compensation program.”According to a spokesperson from
12、GE, Immelt does have the option to reimburse the company for personal travel. And in some cases, Immelt has reimbursed the company for such flights, though the company does not disclose this in its proxy statement or in any other filing.Disney CEO Robert Igers corporate jet use cost $332,808 in 2013
13、. In 2014, it cost $391,411. The company claims in its proxy statement that Igers “security requires the CEO to use corporate aircraft for all personal travel.” Disney clearly takes Igers safety very seriously. They spend over $600,000 a year on it, in fact.ConocoPhillips CEO Ryan Lances jet perk co
14、st $330,869. After Lance was made CEO in mid-2012, the board required him to use corporate aircraft for personal travel for security reasons “unless the Manager of Global Security determines that other arrangements represent an acceptable risk.” Like Immelt, amounts also include travel costs “for an
15、y family member or guest” accompanying the CEO.True, personal use of the corporate jet doesnt mean that the CEO is flying to one vacation home after another. But its safe to say that a CEO should seriously consider taking a page out of Moynihans playbook and reimburse the company for those kinds of
16、trips.许多公司的首席执行官都会充分利用他们使用公司商务飞机的特权。谁不希望有自己的空中座驾随时待命？但股东们应该为此买单吗？自 2008 年以来，这项福利引起了广泛的关注和批评。对于公司商务机私用，公司给出的三个常见理由是：为高管安全着想、董事会授权，还有一个单纯的原因便捷。有多少大公司的 CEO 可以随时使用公司的商务机？薪酬研究公司 Equilar 最近发现，在 95 家位列财富100 强的上市公司中，有 65 位 CEO 有资格享受或获得了某种形式的商务机特殊待遇。Equilar 发现，有两位没有享受这种待遇的 CEO 来自航空公司，而在航空公司，所有员工通常都可以免费航空旅行。这项福利的平均成本，至少在那些已披露相关数据的公司，达到 141,187 美元，约占 CEO 总福利支出的五分之二。那么，哪些 CEO 正在最充分利用这项特殊待遇呢？商务机开销最大的五位 CEO 分别是美国银行 CEO 布莱恩 o 莫伊尼罕、波音公司 CEO 詹姆斯 o 麦克纳尼、通用电气CEO 杰弗里 o 伊梅尔特、迪士尼 CEO 罗伯特 o 艾格和
