Management Incentives and Employee Benefit
Trust Services

End to end management incentive and EBT administration that is clear, confidential and compliant across leading international financial centres.

Overview

Overview

Running management incentive and employee benefit plans (EBT) should be clear, confidential and compliant.

In practice, aligning incentives with strategy, meeting KYC and AML requirements, handling nominee shareholding and keeping governance tight across multiple jurisdictions can absorb time and create risk. Delays and inconsistent records frustrate executives and investors.

We make incentives and employee benefit trusts simple, secure and well run. Whether you need an EBT for equity awards, a bespoke management incentive trust, nominee shareholding for confidentiality or disciplined governance and compliance, we deliver end-to-end support across leading international financial centres. You get practical guidance, precise documentation and a clean, compliant framework that builds confidence with boards and investors.

Who we support

We work with private equity, venture capital and private capital sponsors, portfolio companies and spinouts. We also support financial institutions and asset managers, corporates, trustees and family offices that need reliable incentives and EBT administration across leading international financial centres.

If you need consistency, speed and clear accountability, we align your incentive framework to local rules and your plan design. We coordinate trustee actions, nominee arrangements, payments, registers and filings so you can focus on performance, transactions and investor confidence.

Integrated with our full-service platform

You benefit from one joined-up team across legal, governance and consulting. Advice connects directly to implementation. Incentive and EBT delivery flows into corporate administration, company secretarial, fiduciary, accounting and investor services. That means fewer handoffs and faster outcomes.

Establishment of management incentives and EBTs are managed with your chosen legal adviser.
