BP Share Price (BP.)

“”Perhaps SHELL will take pity on our incompetent management - snap us up ??“”

The sp was about 360p last year, why SHELL didn’t snap up BP then?

1. Share Value Plan (SVP) / Group Share Value Plan (GSVP)What they are: BP's primary long-term incentive plans for senior staff and executives, which conditionally award shares that normally vest over a three-year period

Treatment at retirement: These awards typically survive your departure. They are often pro-rated for the time you actually served during the performance or vesting period. They generally remain subject to the original performance conditions

Deferred Bonus / Restricted SharesWhat they are: Portions of your annual cash bonus that are deferred into BP shares for a designated period to ensure long-term value alignment

Treatment at retirement: Deferred shares are typically released upon retirement. They are far less likely to be heavily pro-rated (or pro-rated at all), as they represent compensation for work already completed

3. Performance Shares (LTIPs)What they are: Long-Term Incentive Plans that are heavily dependent on BP's overall performance metrics and strategic targets.Treatment at retirement: These generally continue to vest on their original schedule. The Compensation and Remuneration Committee will review final performance targets at the end of the performance period to determine the final number of shares to be released

4. Sharesave / Save As You Earn (SAYE)What they are: Tax-advantaged schemes that allow you to save a portion of your salary to buy BP shares at a discounted rate.Treatment at retirement: If you leave the company due to retirement, you are classified as a "good leaver". You typically have a window of up to 6 months following your retirement date to exercise your share options

5. Minimum Shareholding RequirementsExecutive directors and senior leaders are subject to strict minimum shareholding guidelines (e.g., up to 700% of base salary for the CEO). Upon retirement, the Remuneration Committee dictates rules on how quickly these retained shares must be disposed of post-retirement, to maintain ongoing alignment with BP's shareholder interests

These are typical so cannot guarantee anything exactly ( but probably very close)
