OVERVIEW

This webinar will boost your knowledge of year-end and year-start strategies for stock options, restricted stock/RSUs, ESPPs, and company stock holdings to help you make smarter decisions and prevent costly mistakes. Uneven markets and economic uncertainty make the need for effective guidance even more important, as this webinar covers.

In 100 minutes, the webinar features insights from a panel of three leading financial and tax advisors, including real-world case studies, to provide practical expertise on equity comp in both public and private companies. Minimize taxes and build wealth with their know-how on the essentials of year-end and year-start planning.
