OUR SOLUTIONS
FINANCIAL ADVISORS
Our firm designs private placement insurance structures and investments with both the client and financial advisor in mind. By deferring, reducing, and eliminating taxation from highly tax-inefficient investments to benefit individual and institutional clients, 3cStructures helps grow assets under management while permitting the financial advisor to continue managing the investments and selecting the custodian.
​
Financial advisors are able to enhance performance, maintain investment flexibility and strengthen their client relationships.
INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS
Bespoke life insurance and annuity structures permit institutional investors to improve tax-efficiency and risk-based-capital treatment of investments, offset the costs associated with employee benefit obligations and incentivize key employees. These structures can also eliminate FIRPTA for foreign investors into U.S. real estate and eliminate Unrelated Business Taxable Income (UBTI) for tax-exempt investors.
