Equity compensation can be a powerful wealth-building tool, especially for executives, young employees and professionals in high-growth industries. But as your employer’s stock grows, so does a hidden risk: concentration. If a large portion of your net worth is tied up in company stock through RSUs, ESPPs, and equity awards, your financial future may be more volatile than you think.

At Quantel we help clients reduce this risk with a technology-driven and systematic approach that protects and optimizes their equity-based wealth.

The Challenge of Equity Concentration

While most investors understand the importance of diversification, those receiving company stock often find themselves overexposed—especially when multiple accounts contain the same security. You may have company stock in:

• Vested and unvested RSUs‍
• Employee Stock Purchase Plans (ESPPs)
• Brokerage and retirement accounts‍
• Company-sponsored equity awards‍
• Your 401(k) or deferred compensation plans

Individually, each account might seem fine. But together, they create a highly correlated, potentially risky portfolio.
