At Your Side Through the Lifecycle of Your ESOP
An ESOP can enable you to transfer ownership of your business to employees in a flexible and tax efficient way and help you attract, retain and reward valuable employees while maintaining the degree of control you wish.
We understand the complexities and opportunities that ESOPs present and take this into account to assist you in creating appropriate solutions at every stage of your ESOP.
PNC’s ESOP Solutions Team provides expertise to business owners, ESOP owned companies, and companies considering an ESOP, including: pre-transaction planning, initial ESOP transaction financing, second-stage transaction financing, refinancing of seller notes, mergers and acquisitions, repurchase obligation financing, among other corporate transactions.
