Trends in Startups & Equity Compensation
Speaker(s):
Program Description:
Stay ahead of the curve on trends in startups / equity compensation with two best-in-class practitioners. Steven and Russell will walk through a case study that follows an actual client preparing for a liquidity event a few years out, entertaining a surprise Tender Offer, through the Direct Listing and into the post-exit liquidation strategy. Attendees will get a deep dive into the key strategies and considerations for decisions the client can make across time, and how those decisions influence the rest of their financial picture. If you have clients, or come across prospects, at startups with ISO, NSO, or RSU complexity this session is a MUST!
*This topic has been approved by the CFP Board for 1.0 hour of CE credit.
