Why Transitioning from Active to Passive Doesn't Have to be Taxing

Overview

Investors shouldn't let taxes prevent them from choosing better investment options. Transitioning to a tax-managed SMA may help minimize upfront tax cost and provide opportunities over time to reduce tracking error against a preferred benchmark. The combination of this tax efficiency, along with ongoing tax management, allows investors with different tax and investment situations to more readily achieve their near-term and long-term asset allocation and investment goals.
