Over the past few months, The ESOP Association has been conducting an expansive market research study looking into attitudes toward ESOPs and employee ownership. Our goal for this ambitious project is to help ESOPs and professional service providers gain an edge in both internal and external communications through data-driven messaging that resonates with target audiences. We are just now starting to receive and analyze the results from this first-of-its-kind study, and we will release the initial findings and key takeaways at next week’s National Conference in Washington, DC.

A nationwide grassroots effort stops a push to limit the tax benefits of S corporations sponsoring ESOPs. Instead, Congress approves an initiative sponsored by The ESOP Association to expand the tax deduction paid on ESOP stock. Various pro-ESOP proposals become law upon enactment of the popular ERISA reform legislation. Notably, 80 percent of the members of key tax committees in the House and Senate take public positions in support of ESOPs.
