Transitioning Ownership in the Private Company: The ESOP Solution (2nd Ed.)

Price: $ 24.00
Transitioning Ownership in the Private Company: The ESOP Solution (2nd Ed.)

An employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) is a remarkably effective means for facilitating the sale of a company's stock to the company's employees. It therefore represents a very attractive option for a business owner who would like to liquidate some or all of his ownership interest.

From the business owner's point of view, selling stock to an ESOP can be a way of 'cashing out' that offers significant tax benefits as well as a way to perpetuate the business as an independent entity. For the employees, the ESOP offers not only a financial benefit in terms of retirement funding, but gives them a chance at a real ownership stake, where they have the power to influence the company's success.

This 76 page book illustrates the use of the leveraged ESOP to buy out an existing owner and describes how an ESOP can be used to serve the employee motivation and retention needs of the company.

Employee Financial Participation: An International Survey
Author: David M. Binns
ISBN: 978-0-9802483-0-2

This book provides an overview of key international trends in employee ownership, pension reform, equity compensation, privatization, and employee financial participation in over 30 countries. Over the past two decades, employee financial participation has undergone dramatic changes. As globalization has progressed, a combination of factors such as the influence of multinational corporations, pension and welfare reform, privatization and the accelerating pace of technological change have resulted in profound changes in the strategies and methods of compensating employees at all levels. In addition to a survey of the legislative and regulatory changes in both established and emerging economies, this book provides examples of the impact of these strategies on individual firm performance.
