The Giant of the Investment World Comes to an End

Warren Buffett, at the age of 95, has officially decided to step down from his position as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway. According to PANews, his retirement took effect on December 31, 2025, at the age of 95.

From Long-standing Leadership to a New Regime

Buffett, who has led Berkshire Hathaway for decades, had already announced his departure from his duties by the end of 2025 in November. However, this is not a complete retirement; he will remain as Chairman of the Board and continue to hold a “significant” amount of the company’s shares.

Ongoing Relationship with the Investment Empire

Buffett’s decision to remain active as an executive until the age of 95 symbolizes a generational shift for the next leadership. The helm of the investment empire Berkshire Hathaway will be handed over to a new leader, but Buffett’s extensive experience and insights, appropriate for his age, will continue to be utilized in his role as Chairman of the Board.
