Our team can design and structure new incentive arrangements including share options plans, savings schemes, bonus schemes as well as assisting with establishing a wide range of incentive arrangements including employee ownership trusts. We advise trustees, individuals and corporate entities on their arrangements and offer support across the lifetime of schemes, through to termination and wind-up.

We advise on the full range of legal, regulatory and tax issues relating to pensions in Jersey, Guernsey, the British Virgin Islands and Cayman Islands, from establishment of tailored jurisdictional schemes to assisting on buy-out, closure to future accruals and winding up. We advise a significant number of banks and other financial institutions on their employee pension schemes in our jurisdictions and further afield. 

Ogier has strong relationships with many of the major international law firms. The team regularly guides multi-jurisdictional organisations through a wide range of corporate transactions including listings, mergers, acquisitions, management buy-outs, and restructurings. We offer legal advice throughout the insolvency process and its impact on pension and incentive arrangements.
