New York – (business wire)–Morgan Stanley at Work today announced the launch of its stock plan platform Equity Edge Online® (EEO) and Announced three strategic product enhancements for Shareworks.

These technology upgrades to EEO and Shareworks enable enterprise customers to experience new processes that increase efficiency, increase productivity and increase satisfaction.

New technology features and capabilities of the platform include:

  • Enhanced fractional trading capabilities in both Shareworks and EEO allow stock plan participants to trade fractional portions of their shares or sell just enough to cover taxes and keep the rest. This allows you to retain more equity after vesting, broaden your tax strategy options, and increase planning engagement and satisfaction.

  • Shareworks’ fully automated leave management process eliminates the need for stock plan managers to manually update individual best schedules as participants leave and return. Plan administrators can now automatically handle this frequent occurrence using simple status rules, saving time and minimizing errors.

  • EEO’s new automation framework, called Workflow, allows stock plan managers to build custom automated processes to reduce individual manual steps. Automated workflows help administrators coordinate and deploy end-to-end processes on the platform itself, store required parameters, segregate specific participant populations, and execute workflows for specific events. Helps you do it all from one place.

Mark Mitchell, Chief Product Officer, Morgan Stanley At Work, said: “We are firmly on the gas to improve the lives of administrators and their participants through technology that turns analog processes into seamless automation. It helps companies save time and money while doing so, and as we continue to invest heavily in our people, platform and products, we will be able to do even more.”
