A report commissioned by the Conflicts Committee of Apollo Global Management ("Apollo") stated Epstein was paid $158 million by Black between 2012 and 2017 for services related to a variety of tax and estate planning matters, an amount that appears to far exceed that paid by Black to his other professional advisors.' This compensation scheme, which ranged between $23 million and $26 million for a number of years appears to have far exceeded the median CEO pay for Fortune 500 CEOs, which Fortune calculated at $15.9 million for 2021.2 This amount also appears well in excess of the expected compensation for estate planning services—particularly in a case where Epstein's work was required to be vetted by other legal and accounting professionals, at times was viewed as not useful, and included instances of substantial misrepresentations of applicable tax laws!
