Course Outline
Introduction
Employee Ownership Trusts are a potentially tax effective way of realising shareholder value by transferring ownership to employees.
This learn live session examines the qualification criteria in detail and, taking into account the ongoing HMRC consultation in this area, considers the tax, legal and practical issues around designing, implementing and operating an Employee Ownership Trust. It is aimed at any professional adviser who acts for:
- Employee Ownership Trusts
- companies with an Employee Ownership Trust as shareholder

- clients with an acquisition strategy that may involve companies owned by Employee Ownership Trusts.
It is also relevant to company secretaries, benefits managers and in-house personnel responsible for the implementation or day to day running and management of or liaison with Employee Ownership Trusts.
