The digital session covered:
- Issues related to labour, employment and executive compensation and benefits matters (such as share plans, share options, phantom equity plans and cash bonuses), both internationally (in the UK and other key jurisdictions) and in the United States.
- We shared key insights and experience advising on the transaction process, focusing on how best to prepare and plan ahead in order to maximise deal outcomes.
- We shared key observations arising from the new Employment Rights Bill, the UK tax budget (30 October 2024) and the U.S. Election (5 November 2024) that should be factored into advance planning for future transactions.
