The Future of Investment Management


Listen Later

After-tax outcomes. Concentrated wealth. Private market access. The math matters more than the marketing. Innovation is inevitable. Access to new investment tools continues to expand. The question is whether the benefits outweigh the costs.

In Episode 27 of Greenstream, we discuss the tradeoffs behind strategies designed to improve after-tax outcomes, manage concentrated wealth, and pursue private market opportunities to determine when the math works for the investor and when it does not.

  • When direct indexing may improve after-tax outcomes and how tax-aware implementation differs from owning commingled funds
  • Under what circumstances exchange funds and 351 structures may help address concentrated wealth, and when their complexity may outweigh the benefit
  • How to apply Pat’s penny lesson framework to new investment tools to help determine whether potential advantages justify added fees, complexity, and liquidity tradeoff
