Ann Marsh of Financial Planning quotes Susan Colpitts, co-founder and executive vice president at Signature, in an article about the top tax strategies to consider for 2012. Colpitts advises financial planners look at investment interest expenses for deductions. “For any investor, see if they can deduct interest expenses that they paid on investments and look to see if this is optimized,” she says. “The determination of when this is possible is somewhat complex but planners can check IRS Form 4952 and use tax software to do that calculation.”

Weyman Gong, principal and portfolio manager at Signature, is quoted in an article for CNNMoney.com about the direction of the market after Greek leaders were unable to reach an agreement on a debt-relief deal. While the Dow Jones industrial average and Nasdaq both reported futures declining, investors still look forward to a deal being made this week, as Greek officials continue ongoing discussions with private-sector creditors. “All eyes will be on Europe this morning again,” Gong says. “Global investors are really concerned about the bankruptcy issue—particularly a Greek default, which everybody wants to avoid.”
