Compensation, Equity & Employment Tax

Effective employee remuneration is critical to business success. Tax efficient incentive plans (examples include annual cash bonus plans, deferred cash bonus plans, stock option plans, restricted stock and restricted stock unit plans, profit sharing arrangements, sales incentives, retention plans) and global tax compliance are vital if maximum value is to be achieved for both employers and employees. Tax, legal and regulatory rules are increasingly complex and constantly changing. Taxand's Global Compensation, Equity and Employment Tax team provides proactive tax advice, regulatory oversight and best practice expertise.

Practical advice to help you keep your people

The sensitive nature of employee compensation means that operational accuracy and compliance is essential. Errors can be costly as they result in reputational damage as well as financial loss. As tax authorities across the globe increasingly co-operate with each other, disclosure demands escalate and tax and social security rates rise worldwide, companies need to take even greater care to achieve compliance across borders. Taxand advisors provide a "hands on" service to ensure remuneration plans work in practice not just theory, wherever you deploy your people.  We are able to provide views on the latest compensation trends and the international regulatory environment.  

Integrated approach to optimise value

At Taxand we work closely with our clients recognising that remuneration plans need to be effective for all stakeholders - employers, employees, shareholders as well as payroll and administration teams. We don't just focus on tax compliance. We provide an integrated service combining tax, legal, financial and human resources requirements. Our approach aims to optimise value for all parties through effective and tax compliant reward programmes.
