    Discover the best scheme type

    We will outline the four most common ways of distributing shares, and the pros and cons of each one (e.g. tax-efficiency).

    Understand the process

    There are more than 20 steps involved in setting up a share scheme. We’ll explain what you need to do, and how to avoid the complexity and hassle by using our platform.

    Figure out the costs

    And not just for set up, because it’s important to know what you’re in for over the lifetime of a scheme.

    Learn how to stay compliant

    Around 50% of all existing EMI schemes are not compliant. Every year non-compliance costs shareholders many millions upon exit. We’ll help you avoid the mother of all headaches when it is time to exit.
