Types of shares in a SIP

To provide context, there are a few types of shares within a company’s share incentive plan (SIP). A SIP is an employee plan for companies within the UK to flexibly award equity to employees. Publicly listed companies normally exercise this option because it’s tax-efficient for both the employer and its employees.

In this instance, the director dealings at Investec bought partnership shares. Employees can use a SIP to buy shares on a monthly basis or at the end of an ‘accumulation period’. If there is an accumulation period in effect, employees can buy shares at the market value at the beginning or end of the period.
