Webinar | Make the Most of Your Stock Options After an IPO

    | June 23, 2021

    Receiving equity compensation or purchasing employee stock is an investment in the long-term success of your company. And last August, Rocket Companies' employees were rewarded for their investment when the organization issued an IPO. Going public can mean a sudden and significant windfall for you, but there are a number of considerations you need to be aware of when it comes to your stock options.

    On Wednesday, March 10th, we held a webinar to discuss the wealth management implications of the recent Rocket Companies' IPO. Specifically, we covered:

    • Your employee stock: when to sell, when to hold, and finding the right mix for your short- and long-term goals
    • How to navigate the lock-up period and time your stock sale to maximize the benefits
    • The tax implications of exercising your employee stock options and how to minimize the tax burden
    • How an IPO can affect your financial planning — and how to avoid common post-IPO mistakes
