Year-End Investment & Tax-related Concerns

Investors need to review their investment and tax situations with their respective financial professionals.

Tax planning is critical throughout the year in order to minimize tax liability. You can often minimize your tax burden through such means as tax-free municipal bonds, tax shelters, IRA accounts, and trusts. Also, the selling of securities to realize losses that will offset capital gains may also be an appropriate strategy to minimize your tax liability.

Contact your Davidson Financial Consultant about these types of investments. D.A. Davidson & Co. is not a tax advisor. Before investing or making any tax decision, consult with your personal advisor about the specific tax consequences and advantages for your situation.
