Reduction of Excess Business Holding Accrual Act

What this bill does

  • Stock repurchased by corporations from employee stock ownership plans is counted as outstanding voting stock for federal excise tax purposes on private foundations.
  • Private foundations that own more than 20% of voting stock in corporations are affected by this change in how excess business holdings are calculated.
  • The rule applies to stock repurchased after January 1, 2020, with exceptions for the first 10 years after an ESOP is established.

    How might this change in counting repurchased stock affect the tax burden on private foundations that hold significant corporate stakes?

  2. 02

    What trade-offs exist between encouraging employee stock ownership plans and preventing private foundations from accumulating excess business holdings?

  3. 03

    Why does the bill exempt ESOPs established within the past 10 years, and how does that timeline align with typical ESOP growth patterns?
