Australia

 

Recent changes to the Employee Share Scheme (ESS) regulations in Australia have clarified tax obligations for employees and eased obligations for employers, allowing tech start-ups to attract top talent in the global market. The introduction of a new ESS regime replaces previous relief measures, making it simpler for companies to obtain relief and avoid complex disclosures and regulatory obligations. Biztech Lawyers and Qapita are supporting clients in Australia and internationally to leverage these changes and empower their employees through equity ownership.
