The highest-paid CEOs in the U.S. are not necessarily leading the world’s largest companies. Some executives at smaller tech and stock market firms earn more than those at Apple, Blackstone, and other significant players on the Fortune 500 list. This information comes from a new study by C-Suite Comp, a data analysis company that tracks the compensation of leaders at nearly 4,000 publicly traded companies in the U.S.

The C-Suite Comp released a list of the highest-paid CEOs of 2023, based on total compensation, which includes salary, bonuses, perks, and stock options.
