From what I can tell, it seems like he takes credit for most of the work of his protégés. See: the DaVinci Code Soundtrack, for which he only wrote the main theme, or the Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack, for which... You guessed it, he only wrote the main theme.

And that Pirates theme is just a rehash of his theme for The Rock a few decades earlier

I watched gladiator for the first time a few weeks ago and there was a few times where the soundtrack sounded very pirates-y. I have no idea if it was actually Hanz Zimmer who did that one though

Zimmer scored Gladiator and was the score producer on Pirates three years later.
