This is the question addressed by Rey Santodomingo, Vassilii Nemtchinov and Tim Li of Parametric Portfolio Associates .Santodomingo and his colleagues describe a practical approach to constructing risk-controlled factor strategy portfolios. They find that the effects of taxes are significant, even for the most tax-efficient factor strategies and that an active tax-management strategy can reduce tax costs and, sometimes, provide tax benefits. Systematically applying tax-management tactics can add 0.9% to 1.8% of tax alpha to these factor strategy portfolios.
