Why does National Share Scheme Day exist...?

National Share Scheme Day raises awareness that employee share schemes give everybody a stake in society!

Our data shows that:

  • 93% of company leaders said their share scheme helped their company grow...
  • ...and 95% said shares improve employee loyalty.
  • Many share schemes have tax incentives and to date, £480,000,000’s worth of tax has been saved by British companies with schemes in place.
  • For every 100,000 companies that have a scheme, we can add £1bn to the economy.
