Global Equity Compensation...cont'd
We advise multinational companies on the design,
implementation, and maintenance of equity compensation programs
around the world. These programs include stock options, stock
appreciation rights, restricted stock
units, restricted stock, and employee stock purchase rights. We counsel
clients on all tax and regulatory issues associated with offering
such programs on a global basis. Our extensive experience enables
us to apprise our clients of current best practices and to help them
avoid regulatory, tax, and cultural pitfalls.
Failure to properly assess the legal issues in
each country prior to implementation can result in fines, tax
liabilities, administrative burdens and costs, criminal penalties,
negative publicity, and employee dissatisfaction. Careful
consideration of such issues in each country prior to implementation
is essential for success.
