The Quantus Group
One firm for both. What you’re taxed on, whether it comes from a business you own or a paycheck and a stock plan, and what happens to the money after. We plan them together, because each one changes the other.
A-000 · The firm
You’re taxed on what you earn and on what you invest. Your CPA files the return. Your advisor runs the portfolio. The decisions that connect the two belong to neither of them. Here they’re one plan, with a door between.

The decisions
What you’re taxed on, what you can deduct, what holds your money, and how much risk it carries. Each one changes the others, so they’re made together.
For owners
How the business earns and pays you decides what you're taxed on, when, and at what rate.
For executives
A paycheck can't be restructured. The deductions come from what you buy with it.
For owners and investors
What you keep depends on what holds it: the entity your business runs through, and the account each investment sits in.
For any portfolio
Most portfolios were built for a market that's gone. Take control of how much risk you carry, and for how long.
