In the following pages, we will provide an overview on the new tax legislation and what the potential impact is on your investments. We'll highlight some tax-mitigation strategies for clients who have concentrated stock or significantly appreciated assets. Plus we'll dive deeper into a couple of popular strategies that you can use for low-cost basis stock, such as active tax-loss harvesting and Charitable Remainder Trusts (CRTs).

Tax laws change frequently and we regularly update investors about tax- reduction strategies. With new laws expected in late 2021, we’re educating our clients about the possible impact on their investments and how to lower their taxes.
