Not only can charitable giving be gratifying to give back to personal causes, it can also be a way to minimize downside risk within a portfolio and limit taxes. The Tax Cut Jobs Act of 2017 changed the landscape for taxes by nearly doubling the standard deduction and hurting the impact of itemizing deductions through charitable giving. With the new tax code in place, there are still ways to give back and find the best tax strategy for your situation. No matter if you’re in Los Angeles or anywhere in the US, what is the most efficient way to give back?

Regulators of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and states have made laws over the years to give more transparency. Yet, investors are not always aware of the standards in place and how they are protected. It’s important to understand the types of financial advisors encountered in the crowded financial marketplace.
