Triad Investment Management, LLC

Triad Investment Management is a small, privately owned registered investment adviser that provides discretionary portfolio management and limited financial planning to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), foundations, and businesses. The firm manages roughly $119.5 million across about 40 client relationships and also offers participant account management for held‑away retirement plan accounts via a third‑party platform.

Triad’s investment process is grounded in fundamental security analysis and typically results in concentrated equity portfolios (generally 20–30 positions) with an emphasis on long‑term capital growth and minimizing the risk of permanent loss rather than short‑term market timing. The firm also uses credit‑focused analysis for fixed‑income selections, may hold significant cash when attractive opportunities are limited, and exercises discretionary authority to rebalance held‑away participant accounts connected to its platform.

Compared with many peers, Triad is notable for operating with two advisors and a compact client base, producing a higher advisor‑to‑client ratio and individualized portfolio construction that includes order aggregation and occasional block trades. The firm routinely recommends a single institutional custodian for custody and execution, pays for (but does not receive compensation from) a third‑party participant account platform, and does not charge performance‑based fees.
