Tax, Trust and Estate Planning Overview
Art Resources Team (ART)
Art may play a significant role in the context of a collector's overall wealth. It is estimated that 5-10% of an ultra-high net worth individual's balance sheet is art and collectibles which approximates $3 trillion of art privately held.
It is prudent for a collector to carefully consider the role of art on a balance sheet and critical for art owners to have a strategic plan for their art which addresses considerations during life and after death.

Executive Compensation
Equity compensation can be one of the most valuable benefits offered by your company, but it’s important to understand how they work—and how they’re taxed. For example, one type of equity award may trigger certain federal taxes depending on the circumstances—federal ordinary income tax, the alternative minimum tax, and federal short- or long-term capital gains tax. Here’s what you need to know:
Executive Compensation Overview
Executives today are increasingly compensated with stock or stock options. A benefit of receiving stock or options is that they allow the employee to share in the growth of the company without making a current investment (by purchasing stock or exercising options). However, exercising stock options presents a number of difficult and sometimes divergent choices.

Concentrated Stock
If you have a concentrated stock position from an inheritance, employment stock grants or through building a position over time, you may want to seek to protect yourself against market declines by diversifying your holdings.
Read more
Incentive Stock Option (ISO) Basics
A stock option is not the same as a share of common stock. A stock option is a right to buy a set number of shares of the company’s common stock at a set price (the “exercise price”).
Non-qualified Stock Option (NSO) Basics
For tax purposes, employee stock options are classified as either Incentive Stock Options (ISOs) or Non-qualified Stock Options (NSOs). The primary difference between the two lies in their tax treatment.
Managing a Concentrated Stock Position
Ultra-high net worth individuals often end up holding large amounts of their wealth in the common shares of a single company. Whether acquired through equity-based compensation, inheritances or other avenues, these concentrated stock positions will often have generated a great deal of wealth for these investors. However, concentrated positions can also pose significant risks.

Charitable Remainder Trusts
The objective of a Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT) is to diversify asset holdings, potentially defer capital gains tax and benefit charity by creating a trust that provides a fixed payment stream to family members over a specified term and then distributes the remaining trust assets to charity at the end of the payment term

4When 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.

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.

2Morgan 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. Please consult with your Financial Advisor to understand these differences or review our Understanding Your Brokerage and Investment Advisory Relationships brochure available at www.morganstanley.com/wealth-relationshipwithms/pdfs/understandingyourrelationship.pdf.
3Morgan Stanley’s investment advisory programs may require a minimum asset level and, depending on your specific investment objectives and financial position, may not be appropriate for you. 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.
4When 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.

9Investors 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.
