As an investor, you may be able to explore legal loopholes such as using tax shelters, setting up offshore corporations, and leveraging investments in Qualified Opportunity Zones to minimize the amount of taxes you pay on your investments. Tax shelters are vehicles designed to protect certain investments from income and capital gains taxes; setting up an offshore corporation can have beneficial tax implications depending on the nature of your holdings; and Qualified Opportunity Zones represent economically-distressed communities that may provide opportunities for long-term capital gains tax benefits. Working with a qualified financial advisor can help ensure you structure your investments legally while taking full advantage of the available deductions.

It is important to stay up to date on any changes in the tax code, as well as consult a professional advisor regarding available legal tax deductions. As an investor, some of the most commonly used legal deductions for avoiding paying taxes on investments include losses and depreciation. Many short-term investments may allow for deducting expenses associated with operating the investment in order to offset a portion of its income. Long-term investments may provide opportunities for depreciating parts or entirety of an asset over time which can also reduce one’s overall tax liability.
