Assistance with Investment Guidance and Portfolio Construction
The Langan Group at Morgan Stanley leverages global resources from across the firm to provide access to advice and investment manager analysis, while bringing you a personalized and local perspective. Through our team, we also offer a range of strategies designed to help meet the needs of most individual investors—whatever your financial profile or investment goals.
No two individual investors are alike, however similar their financial, professional, and personal characteristics may appear. Each investor brings a unique set of financial goals, time horizon and tolerance for risk to the investment process.
To help you meet your investment needs, we draw on the global resources of Morgan Stanley, offering guidance in asset allocation, selecting complementary investment products, and managing complex account structures effectively.

To help you meet your investment needs, we draw on the global resources of Morgan Stanley, offering guidance in asset allocation, selecting complementary investment products, and managing complex account structures effectively.
ASSET ALLOCATION
The role of asset allocation in an investment plan cannot be overstated. While asset allocation cannot ensure a profit or protect against loss, it represents a way to help you manage risk and seeks to achieve your long-term goals.
INVESTMENT SELECTION
Experience and resources count when selecting complementary investment products for your portfolio. Our portfolio construction team uses a disciplined risk management framework to evaluate and recommend investment products.
INVESTMENT MANAGER ANALYSIS
Choosing an asset manager is one of the most important decisions you will make. The Global Investment Manager Analysis team consists of over 70 professionals experienced in evaluating approximately 3,200 traditional and alternative strategy investment products, including SMAs, mutual funds, ETFs and liquid alternatives.
HOLISTIC ADVICE
Effective investment advice is not limited to an individual account. We continually seek to expand the ways in which The Langan Group at Morgan Stanley can help you define, pursue, and meet your financial objectives. Investment advice should consider not only individual investment and retirement accounts, but also insurance and annuities, trusts, and charitable giving, for example.
TAX MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES
As an optional service, we seek to enhance clients’ after-tax returns through tax efficient trading, tax-loss harvesting and certain IRS wash sale adherences. Client-specific customization is also available, including tax mandates, which are specific to limits on capital gains, and can help manage tax liabilities; tax-focused portfolio transitions; and security overlap assistance.
Alternative Investment Categories at a Glance
Hedge Funds
Hedged strategies can help manage portfolio volatility, while seeking enhanced risk-adjusted returns relative to traditional equity and fixed income markets.
Digital Assets
Digital assets, such as cryptocurrencies, offer speculative investors the potential for both growth and inflation risk mitigation.
Private Equity
Private market investment approaches, such as private company buyouts, growth equity and venture capital generally seek higher growth and additional diversification relative to traditional equity markets.
Real Estate / Real Assets
Assets such as private real estate and infrastructure offer investors the potential for both appreciation growth and tax-advantaged income while helping to mitigate inflation risk over time
Tax-Advantaged Strategies
Strategies, such as concentrated stock exchange funds, 1031 real estate exchanges, real estate opportunity zones, private placement variable annuity and life insurance structures offer investors a means of additional diversification with the added benefit of reducing or deferring tax liability
Private Credit
Private corporate lending and private real estate lending offer the potential for higher income relative to traditional fixed income markets; additionally, distressed credit investing may serve as an opportunistic means of generating risk-adjusted growth

Please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC program disclosure brochure (the “Morgan Stanley ADV”) for more information in the investment advisory programs available. The Morgan Stanley ADV is available at www.morganstanley.com/ADV.
2When Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”) provide “investment advice” regarding a retirement or welfare benefit plan account, an individual retirement account or a Coverdell education savings account (“Retirement Account”), Morgan Stanley is a “fiduciary” as those terms are defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as applicable. When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code. For more information regarding Morgan Stanley’s role with respect to a Retirement Account, please visit www.morganstanley.com/disclosures/dol. Tax laws are complex and subject to change. Morgan Stanley does not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals are encouraged to consult their tax and legal advisors (a) before establishing a Retirement Account, and (b) regarding any potential tax, ERISA and related consequences of any investments or other transactions made with respect to a Retirement Account. Individuals should consult their tax advisor for matters involving taxation and tax planning and their attorney for matters involving trust and estate planning, charitable giving, philanthropic planning and other legal matters.
3Morgan Stanley offers a wide array of brokerage and advisory services to its clients, each of which may create a different type of relationship with different obligations to you.

4Investors should consider many factors before deciding which 529 plan is appropriate. Some of these factors include: the Plan’s investment options and the historical investment performance of these options, the Plan’s flexibility and features, the reputation and expertise of the Plan’s investment manager, Plan contribution limits and the federal and state tax benefits associated with an investment in the Plan. Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state’s own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state’s tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC does not provide tax and/or legal advice. Investors should review a Program Disclosure Statement, which contains more information on investment options, risk factors, fees and expenses and possible tax consequences.
