Overview
For individuals and their families, wealth compounds after tax. Lodestone Wealth believes that investors have a better chance of meeting their goals when their asset managers take taxes into account. We call this being “tax-aware.”

New Ways To Compound Wealth
Lodestone Wealth's tax-aware strategies go a step beyond solutions that have long been used by taxable investors.
Lodestone Wealth is a diversified equity portfolio designed to help investors build, diversify, and preserve wealth.
Traditional long-only tax-loss harvesting strategies, like direct indexing, generally realize tax benefits during early years of investment or in falling equity markets. Lodestone Wealth Flex seeks to generate excess returns and tax
benefits that are potentially larger and longer lived. Unlike conventional equity strategies, we employ long and short positions, allowing us to unlock more opportunities to realize losses.
Investors may use these strategies in an attempt to:
-
Add alpha and gain control over highly appreciated portfolios
-
Diversify concentrated asset holdings
- Amplify charitable giving
Lodestone Wealth Tax-Aware Alternatives seek to eliminate the typical tax burden of hedge fund strategies.
By combining alternative strategies with tax-aware implementation, our solutions allow investors to access diversifying strategies in a more tax efficient way. In some cases, tax aware alternatives may even help lower an investor’s
overall taxes. We manage a range of investment strategies, including long/short equity, market neutral, trend following, and multi-strategy offerings.
Investors may use these strategies in an attempt to:
-
Reduce exposure to equity market risk
-
Capture additional sources of return
-
Complement existing alternatives allocations
