High Net Worth Tax Strategies and Considerations

Today’s article is focused on high net worth individuals, but I am compelled to note that tax YES, strategy is a cornerstone of financial success when you’re in high income tax brackets, but I believe people in every bracket have access to tax saving opportunities. 


We’ve spent a few years developing a series of strategies and tools for people in every stage, so please reach out with any questions you have no matter where you are in your financial journey.


That said, we know tailored tax strategies play a pivotal role in preserving wealth, ensuring that your financial landscape is optimized not just for today, but for the future. Let’s talk about that.


Choosing the Right Path: Investment Accounts, Deferred Enhanced Funding, and Enhanced Funding Solutions

When it comes to creating tax-efficient income streams, there are several paths you can take, each with its own benefits:


Investment Accounts

  • Ideal for those looking to invest and benefit from market appreciation.

  • No minimum income or net worth threshold.

  • Flexibility in both investment choices and access to funds.


Deferred Enhanced Funding Solution

  • Also aimed at benefiting from market appreciation and generating tax-free income

  • Typically requires a minimum income of $200,000 or a net worth of $1 million.

  • Similar benefit of appreciation to investment accounts, but with a more exclusive entry point.


Enhanced Funding Solution

  • Designed for clients with significant assets who are looking for advanced tax benefits.

  • Custom-tailored strategies to maximize tax-free income while minimizing tax liabilities.

  • Perfect for those aiming to optimize retirement savings and estate planning.


Personalized Strategies for Unique Financial Needs

Whether your focus is on generating tax-efficient income, preserving your wealth, and/or planning your estate, we work with your CPAs and Advisors to build a strategy that aligns with your long-term goals.


Advanced Tax Strategies to Consider

  • Tax-Deferred Growth: Leveraging investment vehicles like annuities or certain life insurance policies can provide the advantage of tax-deferred growth. This means your assets can grow without the immediate tax burden, potentially lowering your current tax liabilities.


  • Tax-Free Income: Options like municipal bonds, or specific insurance products offer tax-free income streams. These can be particularly beneficial for those looking to reduce taxable income in retirement.


  • Capital Gains Management: Tactics like the 1031 Exchange can enhance your investment returns while keeping tax consequences in check.
