Today more then ever companies are using equity compensation to reward, retain and recruit talent!
MVM Advisors can help clear the confusion and mitigate the risk when it comes to Stock Plan Administration:
Compensating employees with company stock or stock-based awards including (but not limited to):
Options — Restricted stock — Stock purchase plans
MVM works with Interactive Brokers LLC (IB) as a custodian for our clients. IB’s Equity Incentive Plan Administrator provides cloud-enabled services for global equity-based incentive plans, a true disruptor in Stock Plan Administration. This allows MVM to offer our clients a unique cutting-edge solution for Stock Plan Administration.
Our partnership allows us to invite employees whose award shares are administered by the Equity Incentive Plan Administrator to open IB accounts and automatically receive their vested shares in those accounts. When we create new accounts for these employees, we automatically load their employee data and move their vested shares. These new IB clients will be able to see their unvested and vested shares as well as other broker accounts in IB’s PortfolioAnalyst.
MVM is able to offer many advanced plan features (via Interactive Brokers) and unique offerings at much lower account levels and minimal fee schedules including:
- Yield enhancement: Many firms’ stock becomes hard-to-borrow for an extended period of time following an IPO
- Extremely competitive financing rates. Employees may want to maximize LT gains, so financing is especially important during initial holding period
- Ability to use IB’s options platform to protect profits (or limit losses) during the short term in order to gain LT gain status. Other tools: Tax Optimizer, writing covered calls (2 day settlement to protect LT gains status), no commission costs to exercise or assign U.S. options
- Portfolio Analyst.
- EmployeeTrack offered at no cost (especially regulated sectors: finance, legal, medical, etc…)
