Let’s Talk Future™ - An Oppenheimer Podcast

In this episode, Peter Cadaret interviews Brian Jacobs, Head of Client Portfolio Management for PGIM Investments, about the concept of direct indexing. They discuss how direct indexing breaks down an index like the S&P 500 into smaller components, helping investors to understand tax harvesting. The conversation also covers the role of technology in making direct indexing more accessible, the benefits of active tax management, and how investors may use direct indexing to capitalize on market volatility.
