KKR · Executive and director compensation, fiscal 2025 only
Data as of September 5, 2026Latest filing (10-K): February 27, 2026
18 figures on this page, cited to the filing that reported them. See the citations
KKR & Co. does not file an annual proxy statement (DEF 14A). Its executive compensation is disclosed directly in its Form 10-K (Part III), which is the filing cited throughout this document. A Form 10-K does not carry director compensation, the director fee schedule, a disclosed compensation peer group or a say-on-pay vote; those sections are absent from this document for that reason, not from a data gap.

A dash means the company reported no figure in that column. $0 is shown only where the filing prints a zero. A negative change in pension value is shown but, as the company reports it, not included in the total.
