Many entrepreneurs know how they got into business but can face significant challenges when transitioning out of their business often due to a lack of proper succession planning. An Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) can be a tax efficient way to provide an exit strategy while also boosting employee loyalty and productivity. It can also be a powerful way to align your employees’ interests with the success of your company.

We’ll also make sure you understand the tax implications and governance requirements of ESOP plans and how to optimize them for long-term success and compliance.
