Successful incentive schemes require both specialized expertise in the field and understanding of the broader legal landscape. We have established a dedicated team working specifically with incentive arrangements, supported by our broad expertise in relevant practice areas:

Corporate Law: Structuring and implementation
Tax: Optimisation and compliance
Employment Law: Employment terms and agreements
Stock Exchange and Securities Law: Listed Companies’ specific requirements
Private Equity: PE-specific structures
Financial Regulatory: Remuneration rules in financial institutions

We work closely with company management, boards and owners to develop arrangements that effectively support their strategic objectives. Our experience with both private and listed companies provides us with valuable insight into market practice and trends, while ensuring compliance with increasingly complex regulations.

Our team assists throughout the entire process from initial design to implementation and ongoing administration. We place particular emphasis on developing practical solutions that are easy to communicate and administer, while providing the desired incentive effect and meeting regulatory requirements.
