Equity-Compensation Strategies Easier To Implement With New Stock-Price-Target Alerts From myStockOptions.com - 21 Sep 2009
myStockOptions.com (http://www.mystockoptions.com), the top online
resource of financial-planning tools for stock options, restricted
stock, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights, has
enhanced its myAlerts service of email notices for people who track
stock grants on the website. A user can set a maximum and minimum price
for each stock grant. When the price hits the target, the website sends
an email with the grant details to help that person implement a
financial strategy for the stock grant.
These
stock-price alerts join other alerts that employees and advisors can
arrange to remind them about key vesting dates, imminent expirations
and desired pre-tax grant values. Users can also set up myAlerts to
email them daily, weekly or monthly summaries of stock grants.
Financial advisors who subscribe to myStockOptions.com Pro Membership
can send these alerts to their clients.
Stock Grant Tool For Busy Employees And Executives
For
people with equity pay, stock grants are crucial for achieving personal
goals. But busy lives can distract them from golden financial
opportunities. It's all too easy to let valuable in-the-money stock
options expire without being exercised.
"Ironically, while
employees and executives are working hard for the company performance
their equity pay motivates them to achieve, they can forget key moments
in the lives of their stock grants," observes Bruce Brumberg, the
editor-in-chief of myStockOptions.com. "myAlerts can remind users about
these key financial-planning opportunities. In addition, myAlerts can
help in the development of overall strategies for exercising and
selling. Executives can even use the stock-price alerts to monitor the
trigger points for Rule 10b5-1 trading plans."
Users choose to
receive email notices on the myAlerts page, available through a direct
link from myRecords. To receive email alerts, users must have entered
grant data in myRecords, the website's highly secure online
record-keeper and portfolio-tracker for employee stock options,
restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and stock
appreciation rights. All alerts are sent to the email address in the
user's account profile.
