Employee Stock Purchase Plans
Boost your employees’ financial wellbeing
Employee Share Purchase Plans (ESPPs) are an easy and cost-effective way to give your employees a stake in your company. Handled through payroll deductions, usually at a discount or matching shares, they help employees build their financial wealth. Equity plans work to align employee and company goals – a win-win situation.

Participants are now technically employee-owners. When their goals and objectives become more directly aligned with those of the company they are more likely to stick around to reap the rewards of their hard work.
Benefit all employees
An ESPP can be made available to all employees, making it helpful for recruiting and incentivising non-executive level staff as well as those in the C-Suite.
Flexible to meet your needs
Depending on how your ESPP is drafted it may qualify as either an Approved or an Unapproved Share Scheme. These differ in how tax is treated.
