The ESOP Institute

The ESOP Institute is an organization that supports and promotes Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs). ESOPs are programs that allow employees to become partial owners of their company by acquiring shares of stock, often as part of their retirement plan. The Institute provides education, research, and resources to help businesses implement and manage ESOPs effectively, fostering employee ownership and aligning employees’ interests with company success. Its goal is to enhance understanding of ESOP benefits and practices among business owners, employees, and advisors.
