Tax Optimization Strategies
The Tax Challenge Facing High-Income Investors
Long-short tax-aware strategies are focused on targeting strong risk-adjusted returns through systematic, research-driven investing, aiming to outperform traditional hedge funds while navigating volatile markets.
What sets these strategies apart is how those returns are delivered. Most hedge fund gains are taxed as ordinary income. And while tax-loss harvesting can offset capital gains, it's limited to just $3,000 per year against ordinary income.
These tax-aware strategies are structured differently. Along with targeting investment gains, they generate ordinary losses that can offset your W-2 income, investment income, and other earnings. The result: you keep more of what you earn, both from the strategy and from your other income sources.
Trend-Following Strategies
Tax-Aware Trend Following
These strategies use trend-following models to access exclusive alternative assets and factors, capturing opportunities most investors can't reach while maintaining tax-aware implementation.
How It Works:
- Systematic trend-following across equity factors (momentum, quality)
- Yield curve and interest rate strategies in developed & emerging markets
- Volatility futures and alternative commodities exposure
Long-Short Strategies
Tax-Aware Long-Short Equity
Inspired by Warren Buffett's investment philosophy, these strategies combine systematic long-short equity selection with trend-following to seek alpha while generating substantial tax benefits.
How It Works:
- Long-short equity: Long quality, low-beta stocks; short overvalued, high-beta positions
- Trend-following across global futures
- Tax-aware implementation generates ordinary losses
