No service or strategy described here, will prevent the realization of taxable gains from your investments. The services or strategies seek to minimize the current impact of taxes on your account but will not eliminate the eventual realization of imbedded gains from your account. Frequent withdrawals from your account will increase the likelihood of the realization of taxable gains from your account. Additional fees, commissions, or trading charges related to tax management services or strategy may apply. There is no assurance that the benefits of tax management services or strategies will exceed applicable fees, commissions, or trading charges in any given year.
Tax-Efficient Investment Selection
with PNC Wealth Management
How It Works
PNC Wealth Management shares examples of investments that may help you reduce your tax bill.
A municipal bond is a debt security issued by a state, municipality, or county to finance its capital expenditure. Interest from municipal bonds are often exempt from federal taxes and in some cases, exempt from state and local taxes for residents. PNC Investments can help you find attractive municipal bonds to use in taxable investment accounts.
A taxable bond is a debt security whose return to the investor is subject to local, state, or federal taxes or some combination thereof. U.S. government bonds are generally exempt from local or state taxes.
Because of structural differences between mutual funds and ETFs, mutual funds generally incur more capital gains year over year. The ETF structure minimizes capital gains until shares are sold.
A separately managed account (SMA) is a portfolio of assets managed by a professional investment firm. SMAs generally have higher investment minimums than a mutual fund or ETF, but they provide greater transparency and control of what you own. SMAs offer tax-loss harvesting opportunities which allow the investor to offset capital gains from one investment with losses in another investment. PNCI can also provide a tax overlay service that coordinate taxes across multiple SMAs and can defer taxable gains for a period of time.
A strategist portfolio is a risk-based asset allocation model for clients and corporations. PNCI has tax-managed strategist portfolios with the objective of maximizing after-tax returns.
