Question

Do I need an advisor for tax-loss harvesting?

Answer

Although you can harvest losses on your own, a Mercer Advisors wealth advisor may add value by coordinating harvesting across all your accounts, monitoring wash-sale rules, and integrating losses with your broader tax, estate, and charitable planning. Cross-account wash sales are your responsibility to track, and brokers report only those within a single account. Professional coordination can help you avoid costly mistakes and maximize the after-tax benefit.
