Sharing Ownership is primarily about the distribution of equity to employees.
Designed properly, sharing ownership can be a great way to inspire and motivate your team. We are all aware
of how focused individuals are when they ‘own’ or take responsibility for a project. This can be magnified when not only they, but their peers, participate in an employee share plan, effectively giving the whole team a share of the action.
Our Sharing Ownership division provides the structure required to facilitate management and employee participation in
a business through share ownership.
The Sharing Ownership part of this web-site is divided into:
The following is a guide to whether you need to read the Services, Packages and/or
Products web-pages:
Sharing Ownership Services comprises our consulting services through which a Sharing Ownership structure can be designed and specifically tailored and documented to cater for a client’s individual requirements.
Our Sharing Ownership Packages consist of combinations of Products
packaged together to provide specific Sharing Ownership solutions that are
customised to suit the needs of each client.
Our Sharing Ownership Products are stand-alone items that can be
provided separately or in groups.
Brash Solutions is not an ‘off-the-shelf’ product provider, and always ensures
clients’ particular commercial needs are properly taken into account. Invariably,
a client would first obtain Brash Solutions’ Sharing Ownership Services to
identify the right solution, and then a suitable Sharing Ownership Package may
be provided.
Set out below is a summary of these pages. For more detail, go to:
Sharing Ownership Services provides a breakdown of Brash Solutions ESOP consulting division. This covers such areas as ESOP design, legal documentation, communications to employees, administration and even ESOP simulation techniques.
Our Sharing Ownership Packages include all the documentation required to
set up, implement and administer an ESOP from start to finish, customised to
take account of clients’ specific needs. In this way, we aim to make the whole
process as simple as possible.
Our Option Plan Package can be used by large or small, listed or unlisted companies. The Plan incorporates industry best practice, and a range of features not available in standard option plans.
Our Loan Package has been designed to provide employees with full
ownership from day one with no cash outlay, while incorporating genuine
commercial targets, vesting forfeiture provisions, and halving tax on sale by
taking advantage of the general CGT 50% concession. By addressing the twin
obstacles of valuation and financing on share buy-backs, this Plan especially
caters for unlisted companies, but is just as effective for a listed company.
Our Trust-Tax Concession Package has been specifically designed for medium to larger Australian companies, whether listed in Australia or with an overseas-listed parent company, that wish to enable their employees to take full advantage of the Federal Government’s employee share scheme tax concessions. The Trust is a simple but powerful way of enhancing a company’s remuneration structure, and to some extent its culture – with a minimum of legal and administrative hassle.
For those who know what they require, Brash Solutions has developed a wide range
of customisable Products to assist our clients in Sharing Ownership. These range
from Plan Rules, booklets for employees, Board minutes, forms to assist in Plan
Administration, to employee share plan simulator spreadsheets.
