The benefits of using Eqvista Tax and Equity Advisory services

As years went by, numerous types of equity interests have cropped up. New forms of equity interests like convertible securities and phantom stocks had to be created since investor needs evolved and equity compensation became a popular way to attract employees. Similarly, as business models and income sources evolved, so did the tax regulations.

However, this has made it incredibly difficult to stay tax-compliant, manage equity, and do financial planning. Hence, companies of all sizes, from all sectors are seeking professional services.

Since you have discovered Eqvista’s tax and equity advisory services, you need not look any further. Through personalized and comprehensive tax strategies and cutting-edge equity management solutions, we offer a host of benefits that will be explored in this article.

Why Choose Eqvista for Tax and Equity Advisory?

In this section, we cover some of the benefits of using Eqvista’s tax and equity advisory services:

Comprehensive Tax Planning and Strategy

No two companies are exactly alike. There will be differences in business models, financial structures, how they raise funds, and how they compensate employees at different levels. Similarly, not all founders and executives will have the same performance-linked incentives.

This is why Eqvista’s tax and equity advisory services are personalized to each individual or company’s financial goals.

Our tax-planning service extends beyond just proposing the right forms and declarations to file. We also advise on how to time investments to minimize tax liabilities. If you receive equity compensation, we can also tell you when you should declare income from unvested equity compensation to maximize your gains and minimize the tax liability.

Expertise And Experience

We have assembled a team of accredited tax experts and qualified valuation analysts, and have successfully served more than 19,000 companies in the last 6 years. We have an in-depth knowledge of taxation across jurisdictions and types of income. 

Eqvista’s tax and equity advisory services team has worked with startups and private companies from various stages, geographical locations, and sectors.

Our track record is spotless, whether it comes to looking after individual income tax needs or corporate-level tax-planning and equity management advisory.

Maximizing Tax Savings

We keep a detailed record of our clients’ financial history and we monitor any changes to tax deduction regulations. This enables us to utilize optimal tax-loss harvesting practices to offset gains and help our clients reduce their tax liabilities.

We also study laws like the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 to ensure that our clients can make the best of any possible tax credits and deductions. For instance, if your company needs a fleet of vehicles for its logistics, we could advise you if the tax credits you gain from choosing a clean vehicle fleet are worth the price.

Investments, equity transactions, and compensations attract different tax treatment depending on their timing and structure. Suppose your employee receives stock options that will mature in a few years but can be exercised early. Then, we can advise your employee on how to make the most of long-term capital gains tax treatment while improving the capital gains.

Equity Management Solutions

One of our products is a cap table management software. By listening to the needs of this product’s users, we became proficient in numerous equity structures and the tax implications of various types of equity transactions.

We help our clients manage various types of equity interests like founder’s equity, restricted stock units (RSUs), convertible securities, and employee option pools.

Our cap table clients often approach us to get advice on tax-saving strategies related to the sale of stock options or equity management in general. 

Eqvista’s tax and equity advisory services team also guides companies on how to maximize the value of their equity compensation. This enables our clients to attract and retain the best talents.

Compliance And Risk Management

We invest a lot of time and energy in training our teams about the latest tax regulations and laws. We note all changes in tax legislation and analyze how they affect the tax treatment of investments and equity transactions. This information is distributed among all team members speedily.

Then, we create protocols for our entire team to follow when documenting and reporting income. This ensures that all clients get high-quality tax and equity advisory services and avoid penalties and audits.

Optimizing Retirement Accounts and Tax-Deferred Investments

Employee compensation extends beyond just cash to 401(k)s and Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). At higher levels, employees may receive restricted stock units (RSUs) or phantom stocks. Every type of compensation has a unique structure, cash flow implication, and tax treatment.

We can help you optimize your employee compensations to preserve cash and minimize tax while rewarding employees handsomely.

Your employees may need help in maximizing retirement savings through tax-exempt investments in municipal bonds, Roth IRAs, and Roth 401(k) plans. We can guide them to make the best choice as per the individual needs.

We will not only help them choose the best investment avenue but also help them plan their withdrawals in a tax-efficient manner.

Holistic Financial Advisory Services

We do not think of tax advisory and equity advisory as separate practices. After all, they are both very closely related and done to get clarity, conserve cash, improve financial health, and maximize gains.

Hence, our tax professionals and financial planners work in tandem rather than working in silos.

We take a coordinated approach so that our clients can get a comprehensive financial plan that includes advice on investing, equity management, retirement planning, estate planning, and anything else our clients may need.

Advanced Financial Tools and Technology

Eqvista’s tax and equity advisory services team employs financial modeling and analysis tools to provide effective tax planning and equity management. 

For instance, startups heading into fundraising rounds can utilize our round modeling services to visualize changes in equity structure and communicate the same with incoming as well as existing investors.

We provide access to real-time data and insights. This not only optimizes your financial strategies but also enhances the quality of equity management.

For instance, if you need board approval for a certain equity-related decision, use our platform to make the proposal to your directors. Our portal will give you real-time updates whenever a director casts a vote and when resolutions are passed or rejected.
