Generate tax advantages while maintaining market exposure
Many traditional buy-and-hold strategies leave advisors without tax-loss harvesting opportunities in rising markets.
Our 130-30 long-short strategy solves this challenge by using a sophisticated approach: 130% long exposure through our BRNY ETF combined with 30% short exposure to low rated stocks in our proprietary equity ratings model. This structure maintains 100% net market exposure while creating regular tax-loss harvesting opportunities from the short positions - even in up markets.
Meanwhile, our proprietary stock selection model seeks to enhance returns by identifying both outperforming and underperforming stocks, adding potential alpha on top of the tax advantages.

Transform client tax management with strategic implementation
Our unique approach combines tax-deferred growth through BRNY ETF with regular tax losses from short positions, helping you:
- Get concentrated positions off the sidelines
- Generate ongoing tax losses for portfolio management
- Maintain tax efficiency with potential step-up basis
A powerful solution for tax-efficient portfolio transitions while staying invested.
