Tax Advantaged Active Equity

Tax Advantaged Active Equity

Strategy highlights
  • Active equity: The strategies provide clients with active equity exposure while applying ongoing tax optimization
  • Tax alpha: Tax loss harvesting and rebalancing opportunities are frequently monitored to help deliver a highly tax-efficient portfolio
  • Flexibility: Individual portfolios can be customized to align with personal investor preferences, as well as manage transitions and concentrated positions

Strategy description

Tax Advantaged Active Equity strategies seek to provide exposure to a Nuveen active equity portfolio’s investment philosophy and process, complemented with Brooklyn’s tax management to help efficiently boost after-tax returns, balance tracking error and provide portfolio flexibility. Customizations range from simple exclusions to a fully tailored portfolio incorporating personalized investment goals and preferences. The strategies also manage tax-optimized portfolio transitions and gradual tax-neutral concentrated sell downs.

Investment process

The process begins by selecting a Nuveen active equity SMA strategy to create the foundation for the desired portfolio. Investors can add customizations for personalized preferences, legacy asset transitions, and tax-neutral positioning. Portfolio construction includes guardrail establishment and implementation management. To keep portfolios aligned to objectives over time, ongoing monitoring and optimization for systematic tax alpha generation and tracking error management are applied.

Literature and resources

A separately managed account (SMA) is a private portfolio of actively managed, individual securities that may be customized to achieve an individual investor's unique objectives.

SMA accounts typically require a minimum investment of $100,000 for equity and asset allocation strategies and $350,000 for fixed income strategies, although the specific minimum account size varies by program and may be subject to change. The manager may waive these minimums based on client type, asset class, pre-existing relationship with client and other factors. For certain accounts, a negotiated minimum annual fee applies. Please consult with your Nuveen Advisor Consultant for applicable minimums.

Important information on risk

All investments carry a certain degree of risk, including possible loss of principal, and there is no assurance that an investment will provide positive performance over any period of time. It is important to review investment objectives, risk tolerance, tax liability and liquidity needs before choosing an investment style or manager. Equity investments are subject to market risk or the risk that stocks will decline in response to such factors as adverse company news or industry developments or a general economic decline. Investments in foreign securities are subject to special risks, including currency fluctuation and political and economic instability. These risks are often heightened for investments in emerging markets. Impact investing and/or Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) managers may take into consideration factors beyond traditional financial information to select securities, which could result in relative investment performance deviating from other strategies or broad market benchmarks, depending on whether such sectors or investments are in or out of favor in the market. Further, ESG strategies may rely on certain values based criteria to eliminate exposures found in similar strategies or broad market benchmarks, which could also result in relative investment performance deviating. Tracing Error Risk: Tracking error risk refers to the risk that the performance of a client portfolio may not match or correlate to that of the index it attempts to track, either on a daily or aggregate basis. Factors such as fees and trading expenses, client-imposed restrictions, tax-loss harvesting, imperfect correlation between the portfolio’s investments and the index, changes to the composition of the index, regulatory policies, and high portfolio turnover all contribute to tracking error. Tracking error risk may cause the performance of a client portfolio to be less or more than expected. Tax-Managed Investing Risk: Investment strategies that seek to enhance after-tax performance may be unable to fully realize strategic gains or harvest losses due to various factors. Any reduction in taxes will depend on an investor’s specific tax situation. Market conditions may limit the ability to generate tax losses. A tax-managed strategy may cause a client portfolio to hold a security in order to achieve more favorable tax treatment or to sell a security in order to create tax losses. A tax loss realized by a U.S. investor after selling a security will be negated if the investor purchases the security within thirty days. Although portfolio managers can seek to avoid such a “wash sales” and temporarily restrict securities sold at a loss within the same portfolio, a wash sale can inadvertently occur for a variety of factors, including trading in other accounts, including accounts managed by the same investment adviser, client-directed activity and account contributions, withdrawals or rebalancing. Investment strategies that employ tax-loss harvesting also involve the risk that a replacement investment could perform worse than the original investment and that such factor, as well as transaction costs, could offset any potential tax benefit. Investors should discuss the implications of taxmanaged strategies with their tax advisor.
