An index-based portfolio your clients can personalize

Schwab Personalized Indexing is designed to be a core component of your client’s investments. It gives them an equity portfolio that can be shaped to be consistent with their goals and personal values.

Customizable

  • You and your client select an index for the core exposure they want, including environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG).
  • Your client can also exclude a limited number of stocks to further reflect their preferences.

 

Tax efficient

  • Tax-loss harvesting seeks to minimize tax liabilities.
  • There is the potential to outperform the index on an after-tax basis, thanks to tax-loss harvesting.

 

Professionally managed

  • Portfolio managers leverage proprietary technology to optimize your client’s portfolio and monitor it on a daily basis.
