Tax-Efficient Strategies
Taxes act as a drag on your investment performance that can be heavier than any fee you pay. But they might also be the easiest to reduce, with the right strategies in place. Morgan Stanley Total Tax 365 offers a full spectrum of tax-efficient solutions to help mitigate the tax drag on your portfolio—so you can keep more of what you earn and improve after-tax returns.
Total Tax 365
Sudden Wealth
Business owners who are selling their companies and determining how to invest their proceeds for further business opportunities, generational wealth transfers, or retirement. Recipients of an inheritance, divorce settlement, or insurance payouts. Lottery winners, entertainers, and athletes receiving large lump sums, continual payouts, or entering contracts.
Concentrated Positions
Often clients with substantial net worth have accumulated large single stock positions. While these positions have contributed to their wealth over time, this concentration comes with a unique set of risks and tax implications. Our team leverages the Morgan Stanley platform and our unique expertise to help clients navigate this reality.
Generally speaking our solutions fall into these categories, easily remembered by the acronym H.O.P.E.S:
-Hold
-Option Overlay
-Philanthropy
-Exchange Fund

Alternative Investments
Alternative Investments go beyond the stocks and bonds of the traditional 60/40 portfolio. Diverse and versatile, they can help grow and protect your wealth and can shape your portfolio to fit your needs. Alternatives may help you diversify your holdings, so you feel less tied to the ups and downs of the public market- potentially lowering volatility and mitigating downturns. With decades of experience and immense scale, Morgan Stanley is an industry leader in alternatives, resulting in 75% of our fund offerings either being first-look or exclusive to the firm. As an investor, this makes Tennessee Valley Wealth Management at Morgan Stanley the firm of choice for high-net worth investors.

Philanthropy
Morgan Stanley offers a variety of charitable solutions for clients. These include:
-Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs): With a DAF clients make irrevocable, nonrefundable contributions of cash or securities. The assets in the DAF can grow free of federal income tax, and the donor can suggest when and which qualified charities should receive grants.
-Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs): Clients who are 70 ½ or older can make annual QCDs up to $105,000 directly from their IRA to a qualifying public charity. The client will not owe any federal income tax on QCDs.
-U.S. Legacy Income Trusts: The trusts provide Donors contributing cash and/or acceptable securities with the opportunity to avoid recognition of capital gains on contributions of appreciated assets. They also provide monthly distributions of tax-advantaged income for life up to ten individual income beneficiaries designated by the donor. Upon passing of the last income beneficiary, the remainder will be distributed to the donor’s qualified public charities.
-Charitable Remainder Trust: this is an irrevocable trust that is often used for income tax planning and is designed to benefit both individuals and charity. The term of the non–charitable interest may be for up to 20 years or the lives of the individuals – typically the donor and spouse. Contributions to the CRT can qualify for a charitable gift or estate tax deduction and the donor typically receives a charitable income tax deduction for lifetime trusts.

About Corey Wilson
I have several passions in my life, none more important than my family. I have a beautiful wife and best friend, Becka, and two wonderful daughters, Reese and Reagan. When we are not traveling for our girls’ athletics teams (FC Alliance Soccer, Basketball, Volleyball, Track… to name a few), much of our time is spent in service to our Church and the community of Knoxville. When we do get a moment of rest, I enjoy traveling, golf, tennis, basketball, CrossFit, scuba diving, skiing, or simply spending time with our Goldendoodle, Huck.
I feel so blessed every day to wake up and serve our clients as a part of the Tennessee Valley Group at Morgan Stanley. Having worked in this industry since 2002, I offer clients a seasoned professional who is competent to assist you in making life changing financial decisions.
Before graduating from East Tennessee State University with a Bachelor of Business Administration focusing on Finance, I spent much of my energy in serving as a part of Young Life, a ministry focused on impacting High School students. Through this experience I found a deeper understanding and appreciation of individuals’ beliefs, values, and motivations. Ultimately, I came to understand just how important relationships are in our lives. That understanding continues to motivate me today.
By combining my knowledge of finance, statistics, investment planning, and a desire to help people live more meaningful lives, I have been able to accomplish many of my professional and personal goals. My professional credentials include Executive Director-Wealth Management, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® practitioner, and Certified Investment Management Analyst®, a designation obtained through a partnership between Morgan Stanley and the Wharton Business School at The University of Pennsylvania and The University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

Tennessee Valley Wealth Management at Morgan Stanley has been great to work with. They are a no pressure team who developed a sound financial plan for us based on our individual needs. They are very responsive, get things done quickly, and are always pleasant to work with. They supported us through managing a difficult estate in a very timely manner and handling the shut down of two family businesses. We would highly recommend Tennessee Valley Wealth Management.
Richard
Verified ClientNovember 18, 2024
I’m not the kind of investor who stays involved in my portfolio- I’d rather not think about money. But I know its crucial for enjoying the things I love. When I met Corey at a CrossFit gym, his integrity and drive stood out. Finding out he was a financial planner felt like a perfect match. Tennessee Valley Wealth Management is passionate about their work and respects that I care about the big picture, not the details, and they let me be that guy.
