About this episode

Nic discusses how direct indexing can help manage taxes as wealth grows and its implications for financial planning.

For many, index funds are one of the best ways to build long-term wealth. But as portfolios grow and taxable investments become a larger part of the picture, the conversation often shifts beyond investment returns. Today, Nic talks about how direct indexing fits into the next stage of financial planning. He explains why successful investors with large taxable brokerage accounts may begin looking for additional flexibility around taxes, portfolio customization, and managing highly appreciated assets. You'll learn how direct indexing differs from traditional index investing, why tax-loss harvesting is only part of the story, and how this strategy may fit into a broader financial plan. Nick also discusses who direct indexing is designed for—and just as importantly, who it probably isn't.
