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.
據報道，黑石公司（紐約證券交易所代碼：BX）正在啓動一項計劃，向其美國收購公司的大多數員工提供股權。
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.
據《華爾街日報》報道，該決定將在本週的投資者會議上公佈，並將適用於黑石集團私募股權部門控制的所有新收購。
Blackstone, whose private-equity portfolio encompasses over 400,000 employees, aims to broaden ownership beyond just management ranks, the report added.
報告補充說，黑石集團的私募股權投資組合包括超過40萬名員工，旨在擴大所有權範圍，而不僅僅是管理層。
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.
該計劃將從谷輪的18,000名員工開始。谷輪是一家氣候技術部門，去年以140億美元的價格從艾默生電氣公司（紐約證券交易所代碼：EMR）手中收購。
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.
在黑石集團出售公司或將其上市之前，員工必須留在公司才有資格獲得股權激勵。支付金額將取決於黑石集團的投資回報率。
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.
該計劃是收購行業將更多員工納入所有權的更廣泛趨勢的一部分。另一家大型私募股權公司KKR＆Co Inc（紐約證券交易所代碼：KKR）於2011年啓動了基礎廣泛的員工所有權計劃。
KKR's model was expanded through a nonprofit called Ownership Works, which aims to promote shared ownership among companies.
KKR的模式通過一家名爲Ownership Works的非營利組織得到了擴展，該組織旨在促進公司之間的共享所有權。

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·斯塔夫羅斯創立，擁有19個創始私募股權合作伙伴，包括KKR、阿波羅環球管理（紐約證券交易所代碼：APO）、Ares Management、Silver Lake和TPG Inc（納斯達克股票代碼：TPG）。
Each partner committed to introducing shared ownership in at least three companies by the end of 2023.
每個合作伙伴都承諾到2023年底在至少三家公司引入共享所有權。
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，報告稱，黑石集團不是上市合作伙伴，但在梅林娛樂等一些公司也制定了類似的計劃。
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.
倡導擴大員工所有權的人認爲，它可以在競爭激烈的勞動力市場中吸引和留住員工，幫助低級別員工積累財富，並更好地將他們的利益與管理層和股東的利益保持一致。
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).
在過去的12個月中，黑石集團的股票上漲了50％以上。投資者可以通過第一信託增長強度ETF（納斯達克股票代碼：FTGS）和Amplify AI Powered Equity ETF（紐約證券交易所代碼：AIEQ）獲得股票敞口。
