Steve Penfold

Practice Areas

Steve is a Managing Associate who advises companies on tax-qualified employee share plans as well as global executive plans, global due diligence and securities filings, share plan design and drafting plan documents.

He has particular expertise in dealing with UK tax-qualified plans and offshore trust arrangements as well as the technical, tax aspects of share plans.

Steve concentrates much of his time developing Tapestry’s business in Japan and his key clients include Sega, Toyota and Renesas.

Steve has been instrumental in helping to expand the offering of a specific Japanese all-employee share purchase plan granted by Japanese listed companies to their employees outside of Japan. This is an important piece of work and we believe our client is the first Japanese company to offer this to employees outside of Japan.
