Employee
share ownership cannot be effectively developed in
SMEs by applying the same schemes as for large companies.
Large companies have to raise more capital, they have
to multiply the number of shareholders in this view,
and it makes sense to involve many employee shareholders
as well. In SMEs, the need for capital is limited,
shareholders are few, and most often it does not make
sense to allocate shares to many employees. In SMEs,
collective employee share ownership schemes are far
more efficient and, worldwide, the ESOP plan adopted
in 1974 in the US is by far the most efficient of
all.
The United Kingdom is the only country in Europe to
have introduced employee share ownership schemes for
SMEs with some success (but much less than in the
US). For its part, the Labour Party has also made
a proposal under the label of "employee ownership",
which
is controversial.
On the other hand, employee share ownership in SMEs,
whether individual and direct as in large companies
raises the question of devices to be able to exchange
shares, as can be done on a stock market. In the US,
the OTC Markets Group is pushing
for this.
