Video: Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) – FAQs answered

23/06/2022

Meet Tax Partner and resident RSU guru, Michaela Lamb.

Over the last few years, our tax team have been advising more and more clients on RSUs. In this short video, Michaela shares the answers to those FAQs she gets asked on a daily basis:

I’ve been told by my employer that I qualify to receive some RSUs as part of my bonus next year…But what is an RSU?
What tax will I pay when I get RSUs and do I need to do anything?
If I am going to pay tax on RSUs anyway, what is the benefit to me?
What do I need to do when I sell RSUs?
How can Gravita help?

What next?

Watch our video to hear the answers to these questions, and please do get in touch with Michaela Lamb if you would like to discuss in more detail.
