LTIPs, ESPPs, ESOPs, and other share-based plans help attract and retain key talent. We provide advisory and valuation services to get these schemes designed, implemented, and reported correctly.
IFRS 2 requires companies to recognise the cost of share-based payment transactions in their financial statements. This covers employee stock options, restricted stock units, and performance shares. Valuations typically use the Black-Scholes-Merton model, binomial trees, or Monte Carlo simulations to determine fair value at grant date.
Lux Actuaries is licensed by the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) in the UAE to perform financial consulting and advisory services. We provide end-to-end support, from initial scheme design to managed services and financial reporting.

IFRS 2 requires companies to recognise share-based payment transactions (such as employee stock options or share grants) in their financial statements. An actuarial valuation determines the fair value of these equity instruments.
The Black-Scholes-Merton formula is commonly used for simpler options. More complex instruments, such as those with market performance conditions, may need binomial or Monte Carlo simulation models.
IFRS 2 covers Long-Term Incentive Plans (LTIPs), Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs), Employee Stock Purchase Plans (ESPPs), Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), and Share Appreciation Rights (SARs).
