Tax-Aware Investing
Integrating investment management and tax strategy to help reduce the impact of taxes through thoughtful, coordinated portfolio design.
Integrating Tax Strategy into Every Investment Decision
Taxes can have a significantly negative effect on long-term wealth accumulation. Many investors overlook or don’t fully understand tax implications related to their portfolios and overall planning strategies. Yet, it’s not what you make but what you keep that matters most.
At True Wealth Design, taxes are an essential component of an integrated strategy to help make the most of what you have. Being essential, we have built highly experienced and gold-star credentialed in-house teams — Tax Advisory Team, Investment Advisory Team, and Wealth Advisory Team — to work in concert together to better serve clients. Lacking the level of coordination we can achieve with this structure, many strategies would not be possible or subpar at best. Having them in-house also provides a streamlined client service experience.
Through thoughtful design, tight collaboration, and ongoing oversight, we seek to avoid unnecessary tax costs and enhance the overall efficiency of each client’s investment strategy.
- Asset Location. Most advisors put a sole investment strategy in each account. While this is simpler to manage, it is also tax inefficient. True Wealth Design prefers to strategically position specific assets across taxable, tax-deferred, and tax-free accounts, seeking to improve overall after-tax returns. Tax-efficient assets in taxable accounts and tax-inefficient, lower growth assets in tax-deferred IRAs are examples of how deliberate asset placement can help clients better grow after-tax wealth and achieve their long-term goals.
- Tax-Loss Harvesting. Losses are part of investing, but they can also be used strategically to create tax assets to shield income from being taxed. Our team regularly monitors portfolios to identify opportunities for loss harvesting. Markets are volatile and daily monitoring is essential to more fully reap these tax benefits. This disciplined, ongoing approach helps reduce tax drag while keeping portfolios aligned with long-term investment objectives.
- Direct Indexing. We may implement direct indexing strategies to give clients greater control over holdings and increase loss harvesting opportunities. Clients may have environment or social preferences desired to be expressed in their investment strategy or simply prefer to purse greater tax benefits. By owning individual securities rather than a fund, portfolios can place restrictions on securities and utilize heightened volatility of individual securities to more regularly capture losses.
