Brothers Keith and Barry Bentley founded the company in 1984, and MicroStation became the drafting platform used by civil engineers who were not standardized on AutoCAD. The focus stayed infrastructure: roads, bridges, rail, water networks, and power grids, where models must survive decades of operation rather than a design cycle. Acquisitions added Seequent for geological modeling and Power Line Systems for transmission design. The company listed in 2020, remains family-influenced, and is headquartered in Exton, Pennsylvania.

Bentley Systems equity questions

How much does it cost to hedge BSY stock?
The cost of a protective put depends on how far below the current price you set the floor, how long the protection lasts, and BSY's option-implied volatility. A zero-cost collar lowers that cost by selling away some upside. The calculator above prices both structures off the current BSY option chain and shows the annual cost, maximum loss, and tax treatment.
Does Bentley Systems grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
Equity compensation at Bentley Systems typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
Do Bentley Systems RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
No. Bentley Systems restricted stock units (RSUs) use single-trigger vesting: each tranche becomes yours as it vests on schedule, taxed as ordinary income at that point, with no liquidity event required.
