Employee Ownership
Employee Ownership Trusts are more attractive than ever for business owners
If you are considering an exit and want to know if an EOT could be right for you and your business, Entrepreneurs Hub can help you assess your options.
Employee Ownership Trusts (EOTs) are an increasingly popular way for business owners to achieve an exit. Incentivised by the government, these transactions are currently free from capital gains tax (CGT). Recent changes to CGT make this option even more attractive and well worth considering.
Benefits of an Employee Ownership Trust
There are a host of benefits, some of which will be specific to your company and your situation. If you would like to review these, with no obligation, please do get in touch.
The most significant benefit for shareholders is the zero-rate on capital gains tax, especially valuable where there is a significant amount of cash in the business. The business can be sold at market value but without the need to negotiate terms with a third-party.
Studies have shown that Employee-owned businesses perform better. Employees show greater commitment when they have a stake in the company which leads to greater resilience, innovation, and improved profitability. Employees can benefit from tax-free bonuses of up to £3,600 each year too.
