Description
Management incentive plans (MIPs) have become a popular way of remunerating, motivating and rewarding employees and management. During this session, we will examine how to best design and implement an MIP in the context of an M&A transaction and examine the benefits of such schemes generally for the business and employees. We will consider the various types of incentive plans that can be offered to employees and management for both short term and long term incentivisation. We will also discuss some of the key considerations in designing and selecting a plan (eg, tax) and how to choose the right scheme depending on the profile of the management personnel and the nature of the business.
