Tax - Loss Harvesting & Why It Matters
Taking steps to preemptively and correctively minimize losses is critical to the success of a financial plan. As such, tax-loss harvesting is an important step to take in minimizing losses after they occur. This is why I incorporate tax-loss harvesting strategies into my financial plans, to best protect my client's assets and produce the most favorable outcome- regardless of how their assets perform.
If you engage in tax loss harvesting, you must also keep in mind the “wash sale” rules. Under these rules, if you purchase the same or substantially identical securities within 30 days before or after the sale of the securities that generated the loss, the loss will be disallowed. Tax-aware strategies seek to reduce capital gains. There is no guarantee that they will eliminate them.

What is Tax-Loss Harvesting?
Capital gains are the profits you realize when you sell and investment for more than you paid for it, and capital losses are the losses you realize when you sell an investment for less than you paid for it.
Tax-loss harvesting uses your capital losses to offset your capital gains, thus reducing the tax you pay to realize capital gains.

How does Tax- Loss Harvesting Work?
I'm able to perform tax-loss or gain harvesting analysis at the portfolio level, across multiple accounts, at any point during the year.
In its most basic form, tax-loss harvesting strategy allows an investor to reduce tax risk while maintaining exposure. The process for continuously managing for Tax Efficient Portfolios works by: identifying securities held at a loss, selecting replacement securities, and seeking after tax portfolio outperformance though active tax management.
