Equity Compensation
Companies today are using equity compensation as a powerful way to attract high-quality employees and to cultivate an engaged and productive workforce. This type of compensation can take many forms, including Stock Options, Restricted Stock, and Performance Shares and each come with unique rules, tax implications and liquidity challenges.
Employees who participate in their company's equity compensation plan may understand the importance of their participation in such plans but often lack proper understanding of what the benefits are or how to maximize their value in the context of their unique situation.
Hear from Baird’s Equity Compensation Planning Manager, Laurence Kluth, as he shares meaningful advice around how you can integrate these benefits within your broader wealth management plans.
