Equity compensation, inheritances, concentrated positions, and business interests require more than a standard plan. They require coordination, structure, and a clear understanding of how each piece connects.
Equity compensation, inheritances, concentrated positions, and business interests require more than a standard plan. They require coordination, structure, and a clear understanding of how each piece connects.
Our work tends to cluster around a few situations where the coordination problem is the real problem. Jump to the one closest to yours.
Equity, deferred comp, concentrated positions — how the pieces fit together.
Structure and direction after a liquidity event or significant inheritance.
Income from many sources, coordinated to manage your effective tax rate.
The business, your personal finances, and the eventual transition — integrated.
You’ve built a career in tech, energy, aerospace, defense, healthcare, or executive leadership.
Along the way, your compensation has evolved beyond a salary into equity, deferred compensation, real estate, or ownership in a business. Individually, these are valuable assets. Together, they introduce layers of complexity around taxes, timing, risk, and long‑term planning.
At Inclinevest, we focus on how everything fits together. Not just what you own, but how each piece interacts. How equity concentration impacts risk, and how it all ties back to the life you want to fund.
Where appropriate, we coordinate with your CPA and other professionals to ensure your plan is aligned and well integrated.
Integrating equity compensation into your broader financial plan
Guidance on selling and diversifying concentrated positions over time
Coordinating across equity, real estate, and business interests
Aligning complex compensation decisions with long‑term goals
Inherited accounts, investments, and real estate
Liquidity events, including business sales and large equity distributions
Building a long‑term plan after a significant financial change
An inheritance, liquidity event, or significant financial transition can change your situation quickly.
What was once a straightforward plan becomes more complex, often without a clear structure in place. The risk is not just making the wrong decision. It is making decisions without a coordinated plan.
We help you step back, understand what you have received, and build a plan that brings direction and discipline to new wealth.
Where appropriate, we coordinate with your CPA and other professionals to ensure your plan is aligned and well integrated.
Retirement looks different when income comes from multiple sources at once.
Portfolio distributions, Social Security, deferred compensation, rental income, RMDs, and possibly a partial business interest. Each source carries its own tax treatment, and the interaction between them matters.
Above certain income thresholds, retirement becomes a tax coordination problem as much as an income problem. The moving parts multiply, and decisions that look straightforward in isolation can create unintended consequences when viewed together.
We build retirement income plans that account for this complexity from the start — sequencing withdrawals, timing conversions, and coordinating across income sources to manage your effective tax rate year by year.
Retirement income planning across multiple sources
Tax‑sensitive income coordination at higher wealth levels
Social Security timing and taxation coordination
Ongoing withdrawal sequencing as income needs evolve
Integrating business interests into your personal financial plan
Compensation and retirement account structure for business owners
Pre‑sale planning and liquidity event preparation
Coordination with legal and tax professionals on succession and exit strategy
Buy‑sell agreement review and key person planning
For business owners, the line between personal finances and business finances is rarely clean.
Cash flow, compensation structure, retirement accounts, and the eventual transition or sale of the business all intersect in ways that require careful coordination.
Whether you are years away from an exit or beginning to think seriously about succession, the decisions you make now will shape the outcome significantly. Entity structure, buy‑sell agreements, key person planning, and how you extract value from the business all have long‑term financial and tax consequences.
We work with business owners to bring structure to that complexity — integrating the business into your broader financial plan and helping you think through the transition before it is urgent.
Where appropriate, we coordinate with your CPA and other professionals to ensure your plan is aligned and well integrated.
Let’s walk through where you are today and what a coordinated plan could look like.
