Any shares recieved are taxed as income when given. Any subsequent gain is taxed with CGT but that is only the same is receiving a cash bonus and investing it in shares. IMO the best way is restricted shares (i.e. cannot be sold for e.g 3 years) Vince is well off here. Any shares recieved are taxed as income when given.
