OPTRACK

Tracking employee stock options as activity happens

OPTRACK is a secure web application that keeps the books on employee stock options and other equity instruments, such as warrants. The product material says it records activity on those instruments in real time, for publicly traded and private companies that use it. Companies run their employee equity plans through it, and the record covers the full set of instruments each company holds.

Part of a wider transfer agency and governance group

OPTRACK is offered under the Computershare name. The group's business covers transfer agency, employee equity plans, proxy solicitation, entity compliance, stakeholder communications and other financial and governance services. Its web portals let clients and their investors manage their holdings, and the company describes its focus on data integrity and privacy as protecting company, investor and employee information.

Expertise, reach and security

The group presents four reasons for working with it: its record-keeping experience, its regulatory expertise across jurisdictions for cross-border transactions, its technology for investors, and its attention to data security. It also describes its approach as resting on certainty, ingenuity and advantage, in that order of emphasis on delivering results.
