EMI and CSOP are tax-advantaged share schemes available in the UK. For eligible businesses, they make shares an even more powerful employee incentive.
Capdesk caters to these schemes, generating EMI notification and EMI annual return filings for HMRC. It’s easy to manage CSOP and EMI vesting schedules on the platform, and we’ll ensure your business doesn’t accidentally exceed scheme limitations.

These are smart transactions.
