Experts in well-designed incentive arrangements
We work closely with clients on the design and implementation of their employee share plans, bonus plans and incentive arrangements, both locally and worldwide. We advise quoted and unquoted companies across a broad range of industries, tailoring our approach to their commercial needs and goals. Our advice includes all relevant tax and securities law issues.
We regularly advise on appropriate incentive arrangements in the financial services sector, balancing commercial objectives with the relevant regulatory requirements.
Corporate governance
Our expertise extends to the corporate governance issues increasingly relevant to remuneration, particularly for senior executives of quoted companies. We advise our clients on the full range of their legal obligations, institutional investor expectations and best practice in the market.
Transactional support
Our team advises on the impact on employee share plans of corporate transactions, including M&A deals, demergers, restructurings, privatisations and IPOs, often drafting arrangements with those specifically in mind. We also assist our clients with the implementation of new, bespoke incentive arrangements following completion of the transaction.
