An employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) is a tax-favored employee benefit plan through which employees can become owners in their companies at no cost to themselves, at the same time that the company and its owners receive major tax benefits. An ESOP can be used for many purposes, including to use tax-deductible corporate earnings to buy out the owner(s) of a closely held business; to allow shareholders to sell gradually and ease out of the business; to finance corporate acquisitions through the loan that buys stock for a leveraged ESOP; to enhance corporate performance through creating a corporate culture of ownership; and to reward employees with a benefit tied to corporate performance while providing the company with tax benefits. This book explains the rules, uses, benefits, and other aspects of ESOPs. It is helpful as an introduction to the subject and as a concise reference. The 20th edition was heavily revised and expanded as of 2023, with added material on issues such as fiduciaries and ESOP committees plus changes made by the SECURE 2.0 Act.
