Mercury Legacy, led by financial specialists Dr. Azzurra Missinato and Joseph Mubanga, is helping high-income professionals rethink personal finance through high-income tax planning, wealth preservation, ERFT, market downside protection and the tax-free side of finance. The firm's educational approach addresses a critical question for physicians, scientists, biotech executives and business owners: earning more is one thing-but how much wealth are they actually keeping?

Richardson, Texas, USA - August 18, 2026 - Mercury Legacy, co-founded by financial specialists Dr. Azzurra Missinato and Joseph Mubanga, is focusing attention on a financial paradox affecting many successful professionals: earning more money does not necessarily mean keeping proportionally more wealth.

For physicians, scientists, biotech executives, CEOs, dentists and business owners, increasing income can bring increasingly complex decisions involving taxes, investments, retirement planning and wealth preservation. Mercury Legacy is addressing that challenge through education around high-income tax planning, personal finance, ERFT-Eliminating Risk, Fees and Taxes-market downside protection, tax-advantaged retirement and what the firm calls the tax-free side of finance.

For Dr. Missinato, the issue is personal.

Before co-founding Mercury Legacy, Dr. Missinato earned a PhD and spent more than 15 years in science across academia and biotechnology. Despite extensive education, she says one important subject was notably absent from her academic training: understanding how money works.

Her perspective changed dramatically after experiencing how quickly wealth tied to company equity could change. While working in biotechnology, a clinical hold involving a drug program was followed by a sharp decline in the company's stock, dramatically reducing the value of her stock-based compensation in a matter of days.

"I had spent years learning how to evaluate scientific risk, yet nobody had taught me how to evaluate the risks surrounding my own wealth," said Dr. Azzurra Missinato, Co-Founder and CEO of Mercury Legacy. "High income alone doesn't create financial independence. What matters is how much people keep, protect and ultimately control."

That experience helped shape Mercury Legacy's educational mission with fellow Co-Founder and CEO Joseph Mubanga.

The company works with professionals seeking greater understanding of how taxes, fees, market exposure and financial structure can affect long-term wealth. Rather than focusing exclusively on earning higher returns, Mercury Legacy encourages clients to examine how efficiently their existing wealth is being protected and positioned for the future.

"Successful professionals spend decades becoming exceptional at what they do," said Joseph Mubanga, Co-Founder and CEO of Mercury Legacy. "But financial success requires a different question: not simply, 'How much am I making?' but 'How much am I keeping, protecting and positioning for my future and my legacy?'"

Mercury Legacy's approach is particularly relevant to high earners looking for greater control, tax-efficient strategies and protection against market downturns as they prepare for retirement and generational wealth transfer.

The firm is currently licensed in California, Illinois, Texas, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Maryland, Arizona, Florida, Indiana, Ohio and Washington, with plans to expand its ability to serve clients across all 50 states by the end of 2026.
