Retirement Planning

We develop a comprehensive financial plan for your retirement decision, carefully considering the unique industry and company-specific risks you face retiring from Occidental Petroleum. In addition to your Oxy Retirement Plan, Oxy Savings Plan, Supplemental Retirement Plan, and Oxy Deferred Compensation Plan, we include any other benefits you may have from previous employers in your personalized retirement plan.

401(k) Rollovers

We carefully review your Oxy Savings Plan to look at pre-tax, Roth, and after-tax buckets to determine how to maximize your rollover. Additionally, we factor in NUA opportunities for appreciated Oxy Stock. As a result, we will ensure that your potential tax benefits are preserved during the rollover process and throughout retirement.

Net Unrealized Appreciation

A commonly overlooked and one-time-only opportunity for soon-to-be Occidental Petroleum retirees with highly appreciated OXY stock within a 401(k) is NUA. Not using NUA can cost investors a bundle in taxes if executed incorrectly. Therefore, we conduct an NUA analysis with the help of an independent CPA, ensuring you maximize this opportunity.

Tax Planning for Oxy Deferred Compensation & NUA

If you participate in the Oxy Deferred Compensation Plan, have concentrated Oxy Stock, or both, you may face complications with tax planning in retirement. Coordinating with your tax professional, we can uncover potential ways to reduce your taxes through Net Unrealized Appreciation(NUA), deferred compensation, and Roth Conversion strategies where appropriate.

Estate & Other Tax Issues

We know that the issues surrounding retirement aren’t just limited to navigating your Oxy retirement benefits. It’s important to look at the bigger picture regarding your goals, especially if you have a complex estate and/or extensive tax issues. With this in mind, we can assist in building a qualified team of independent financial, tax, and legal advisors. We believe keeping tax, legal, and investment advice separate reduces potential conflicts of interest.

Tax Efficient Cash Flow Planning

Once you’ve decided to retire, it may be difficult to grasp how you’ll meet your monthly spending needs no longer having consistent income from Oxy. We can help you develop an optimal withdrawal and cash flow strategy to potentially minimize taxes during retirement through careful planning. Determining the optimal cash flow strategy can greatly impact the probability of not outliving your assets.

Diversification Strategies for Concentrated Positions

If you have a significant OXY Stock position in your OXY 401(k) Savings Plan, we can develop and implement retirement income and diversification strategies that seek to reduce your commodity and company-specific risks over time.
