I have unvested stock options. What should I do?
Now is the best time to start planning. Getting advice early is key to avoiding excessive taxes, capital losses, and other common pitfalls of navigating the world of stock options. Our team takes the time to get to know every aspect of your finances, which means our advice will be given in the context of a full view of your personal financial picture.
Should I continue to exercise stock options?
If you have the opportunity to exercise stock options, now is a great time to get in touch with our team. There are times our clients wish to continue exercising their options as a way to grow their wealth, with the goal of later selling their stocks and investing elsewhere. For other clients, it is advisable to refrain from exercising options and focus your investment dollars elsewhere. Our strategic recommendation will be based on you, your goals, your needs, your company’s current situation, and more. Together, we’ll create a powerful plan that maximizes your opportunities and minimizes your risks.
How can I avoid overpaying taxes on my stock options?

Further, we can advise you on timing so you can avoid paying the increased tax rates on short-term capital gains.
What is the best way to convert stock options into a diversified portfolio?
One concern our clients face is that their company stock options combined with their commitment to the organization mean that too many income streams are dependent on one source. Our recommendation for our clients is typically diversification. We’ll create a strategic plan to convert your stock options into diversified investments over time. Along the way, we’ll be sure to take advantage of any tax benefits, and seize opportunities as they present themselves.
