Investing with the tax code in mind
Portfolio management for a small number of families
Phil DeMuth is Managing Director of Conservative Wealth Management, LLC, a registered investment adviser. The firm manages portfolios for a small number of families, most of whom have been clients for many years and nearly all of whom arrived by referral. The emphasis is on what the tax code does to investment returns, and on arranging portfolios so that it does less.
Two books explain the approach. The How We Invest page shows what it looks like in practice.
