FAQs

What are the main types of share option schemes available in the UK?
The main types of share option schemes in the UK are the Enterprise Management Incentives (EMI), the Company Share Option Plan (CSOP), and the Share Incentive Plan (SIP).
What are the tax benefits of an EMI scheme?
EMI schemes offer significant tax advantages, including no income tax or National Insurance contributions on the grant or exercise of options, provided certain conditions are met. Gains are subject to Capital Gains Tax (CGT) instead, potentially at lower rates.
How do Share Incentive Plans (SIPs) benefit employees and employers?
SIPs benefit employees by offering free or discounted shares, which can be tax-free if held in the plan for a specified period. Employers benefit from SIPs by enhancing employee loyalty and motivation while receiving tax relief on the contributions.
