Corporate governance In the Netherlands the principles of good corporate governance are laid down in the so-called “Code Tabaksblat”. This code applies to listed companies and plays an important role concerning the remuneration of directors, the position of shareholders and the number of supervisory directorships that a person may hold. Our lawyers provide advice on which legal consequences this code may have for your organisation and for the relations with your stakeholders. We also offer support regarding the legal implementation of the code in your company.
Share and option plans Designing share-related reward plans for employees requires a careful approach. Our lawyers will help you to fi nd the perfect combination of human resource objectives and the relevant tax, fi nancial and legal preconditions. Our task in the international implementation of the plan is to ensure that the plan and the offer made to the employees comply with local regulations. Our international network of legal experts and tax consultants performs the required actions at a local level in close cooperation with our lawyers in the Netherlands: these actions might be the depositing of documents in Malaysia, a compliance audit in Rwanda, or a translation in Bulgaria.
