Systematic differences in employee stock ownership plan contributions: some evidence

Article Abstract:

Business enterprises which made use of the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) as a financial leverage experienced a significant decrease in total retirement plan contributions, as revealed by data derived from Dept of Labor Form 5500. On the other hand, companies which utilized ESOP for employee benefit reasons witnessed substantial increase in retirement contributions. Statistics further proved that the total percentage of firm stock owned by ESOP is not a valid explanation for the changes in retirement benefit plans.
