Benjamin is a biotech executive who’s been with his company for about 10 years. With his busy schedule, Benjamin lost track of his retirement accounts at previous employers. In addition to his high salary, Benjamin has been offered RSUs and ESPPs by his employer over the years. From that, his wealth accumulated significantly, but he is concerned about how much of his wealth was being tied to a single company.

Benjamin wants to deal with his old retirement accounts and reduce his concentration risk while making sure he isn’t making any costly tax mistakes, and ultimately to better position himself with tax liabilities.

For Benjamin, we evaluated all that is available to him and select the stock option strategy that considers taxes as well as his concentration risk. We also consolidated his retirement accounts so that for Benjamin,  managing retirement savings comes with more ease and simplicity. Overall, we implemented a tax-efficient investment strategy that aims to manage risk and optimize returns for Benjamin.
