Concentrated Equity Position

Executives often have a large percentage of their net worth invested in their company's stock.  Your financial success becomes dependent on the performance of that one stock.  Avoiding such a concentrated position may be challenging, as a sale of stock at the wrong time can trigger large capital gains taxes.  And you may not want to part with a large portion of your employer's stock.

Cleary Gull can help review your current portfolio allocation and propose strategies to help diversify your concentrated position in the most tax-efficient way.  Other strategies can be designed around maintaining your ownership while reducing the risk associated with a concentrated position.
