Blackstone To Grant Equity To Rank-And-File Employees At US Buyouts: Report
Blackstone To Grant Equity To Rank-And-File Employees At US Buyouts: Report
Blackstone Inc. (NYSE:BX) is reportedly initiating a plan to grant equity to the majority of employees at its U.S. buyout companies.
据报道，黑石公司（纽约证券交易所代码：BX）正在启动一项计划，向其美国收购公司的大多数员工提供股权。
The decision will be announced at an investor conference this week and will apply to all new acquisitions where Blackstone's private-equity division takes control, reported The Wall Street Journal.
据《华尔街日报》报道，该决定将在本周的投资者会议上公布，并将适用于黑石集团私募股权部门控制的所有新收购。
Blackstone, whose private-equity portfolio encompasses over 400,000 employees, aims to broaden ownership beyond just management ranks, the report added.
报告补充说，黑石集团的私募股权投资组合包括超过40万名员工，旨在扩大所有权范围，而不仅仅是管理层。
The program will begin with the 18,000 employees of Copeland, a climate-technologies unit purchased from Emerson Electric Co (NYSE:EMR) for $14 billion last year.
该计划将从谷轮的18,000名员工开始。谷轮是一家气候技术部门，去年以140亿美元的价格从艾默生电气公司（纽约证券交易所代码：EMR）手中收购。
Employees must remain with their company until Blackstone either sells it or takes it public to qualify for the equity incentives. The payout amount will depend on Blackstone's return on its investment.
在黑石集团出售公司或将其上市之前，员工必须留在公司才有资格获得股权激励。支付金额将取决于黑石集团的投资回报率。
The initiative is part of a wider trend within the buyout industry to include more employees in ownership. KKR & Co Inc (NYSE:KKR), another major private-equity firm, started broad-based employee ownership programs in 2011.
该计划是收购行业将更多员工纳入所有权的更广泛趋势的一部分。另一家大型私募股权公司KKR＆Co Inc（纽约证券交易所代码：KKR）于2011年启动了基础广泛的员工所有权计划。
KKR's model was expanded through a nonprofit called Ownership Works, which aims to promote shared ownership among companies.
KKR的模式通过一家名为Ownership Works的非营利组织得到了扩展，该组织旨在促进公司之间的共享所有权。

Ownership Works, launched by Pete Stavros of KKR, has 19 founding private-equity partners, including KKR, Apollo Global Management (NYSE:APO), Ares Management, Silver Lake, and TPG Inc (NASDAQ:TPG).
Ownership Works由KKR的皮特·斯塔夫罗斯创立，拥有19个创始私募股权合作伙伴，包括KKR、阿波罗环球管理（纽约证券交易所代码：APO）、Ares Management、Silver Lake和TPG Inc（纳斯达克股票代码：TPG）。
Each partner committed to introducing shared ownership in at least three companies by the end of 2023.
每个合作伙伴都承诺到2023年底在至少三家公司引入共享所有权。
Notably, Blackstone is not a listed partner but has similar programs in place at some companies like Merlin Entertainments, per the report.
值得注意的是，报告称，黑石集团不是上市合作伙伴，但在梅林娱乐等一些公司也制定了类似的计划。
Advocates of broader employee ownership argue that it can attract and retain workers in a competitive labor market, help lower-level employees build wealth, and better align their interests with those of management and shareholders.
倡导扩大员工所有权的人认为，它可以在竞争激烈的劳动力市场中吸引和留住员工，帮助低级别员工积累财富，并更好地将他们的利益与管理层和股东的利益保持一致。
Blackstone stock has gained more than 50% in the last 12 months. Investors can gain exposure to the stock via First Trust Growth Strength ETF (NASDAQ:FTGS) and Amplify AI Powered Equity ETF (NYSE:AIEQ).
在过去的12个月中，黑石集团的股票上涨了50％以上。投资者可以通过第一信托增长强度ETF（纳斯达克股票代码：FTGS）和Amplify AI Powered Equity ETF（纽约证券交易所代码：AIEQ）获得股票敞口。
