Periodicals Avianca paid CEO, CFO over $6M in bonuses during pandemic, Reuters reports » Avianca $0.87 / + (+0.00%) AVH Avianca Holdings has come… Avianca Holdings has come under public scrutiny in Colombia for paying its top two executives over $6M in bonuses in May during a time when the airline had furloughed most of its workers without pay and was preparing a bankruptcy filing, Reuters' Marcelo Rochabrun reports. The carrier paid CEO Anco van der Werff $3.7M and paid CFO Adrian Neuhauser $2.8M on May 6, Rochabrun says, citing bankruptcy court documents. Five days after the payments, Avianca filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the U.S., the author says, noting that van der Werff said the company was "facing the most challenging crisis" in its history at the time. The company defended the bonus payouts, saying they were necessary "as an incentive for the company's management team to continue to provide services to Avianca," the author notes.
