Offering equity to employees is a key strategy for startups to attract talent over larger firms, seen in Europe where successful companies like Klarna and Deliveroo have spurred new ventures. However, European taxation on employee stock options varies significantly by country, with Estonia, Lithuania, and the UK cited as the most favorable due to lower tax burdens and simpler regulations compared to countries like France and Germany, which have more stringent tax policies and regulations. These differences impact how much employees can potentially gain from their stock options, influencing company decisions on offering ESOPs versus other equity schemes like VSOPs in heavily regulated markets.
