Introduction
Increasingly, employers are seeking to attract and retain top talent by offering competitive incentive plans and arrangements. The incentives team at Arthur Cox is multi-disciplinary, combining expertise in employment, corporate, securities, tax, regulatory and trust law to provide comprehensive, practical advice on all aspects of employee incentives.
We advise our clients on both day-to-day and bespoke issues involving employee incentives, including:
- the establishment and operation of all types of incentives plans, including Revenue-approved and unapproved schemes, bonus plans and cash arrangements;
- the adaption of existing global incentive plans for Irish employees;
- the effects of a broad range of corporate transactions, including mergers and acquisitions, restructurings, public takeovers and management buyouts, on incentive plans;
- the corporate governance and regulatory issues arising from the establishment and operation of incentive plans; and
- the remuneration issues that arise on the hiring and termination of senior executives and key employees.
We are committed to adding value to our clients and keeping them up to date on the latest legal developments in relation to executive compensation, employment and benefits. We work with our network of established contacts worldwide to provide commercial and practical solutions for our clients that fit with their broader strategic goals.
