DETAILS:
As financial organizations continue to recover from the economic collapse, the prevalence of clawback provisions, in which companies are able to withdraw or recover erroneous bonuses given to their top executives, has grown rapidly. However, increased focus on accountability and transparency among state and local jurisdictions heightens the significance of managing risks associated with clawback provisions.
During this session, Angela Lockman, vice president of Tax Credits and Incentives for Equifax Workforce Solutions, joins with Alice Nolen, tax consultant, State Tax Credits & Incentives and Unclaimed Property for Experis, to share valuable insight into how organizations can develop strategies to prevent clawbacks. They will discuss how to navigate clawback clauses up front, implement best practices to avoid triggering events, consider the impact of clawbacks on project economics and proactively modify agreements to address potential shortfalls.
Attendees of this session will learn how to summarize current trends and legislative activities that may impact their businesses, recall common clawback clauses embedded in incentives agreements, examine the impact of internal and external factors contributing to short-term and long-term project economics, and assist in negotiating clawback clauses beneficial to all parties. Additionally, participants will return to their organizations with best practices for ensuring that contractual obligations are met and strategies for renegotiating or modifying agreements.
Managers, executives and tax personnel attending the 2012 Credits and Incentives Symposium who wish to learn how they can develop an internal plan for preventing clawbacks are encouraged to attend this session.
