About

tru Independence Asset Management 2, LLC (TIAM2) serves a mix of individual and institutional clients — including high‑net‑worth individuals, ERISA and pension plans, trusts, and businesses — providing discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management, standalone financial planning, pension consulting, and third‑party manager selection. The firm’s brochure reports it manages roughly $264.7 million across about 305 accounts and offers both integrated investment management and separate financial planning engagements.

TIAM2’s investment approach blends active and passive strategies across equities, fixed income, ETFs, mutual funds, alternatives and options, using technical and fundamental analysis, Modern Portfolio Theory and diversified asset allocation while monitoring portfolios on an ongoing basis. The firm works with independent managers and sub‑advisors, uses the Pontera platform to manage assets held away from its primary custodians, and discloses that it may employ margin/borrowing in customized strategies for certain high‑net‑worth clients.

Noteworthy operational features include its structure as a wholly owned subsidiary of Sanctuary Wealth operating under two DBAs (Merit and Rely) and a multi‑office footprint, with several disclosed affiliations (tru Independence, Sanctuary Securities, DPL and relationships tied to Azimut/Kennedy Lewis) that provide platform, custody and insurance‑related services and are identified as potential conflicts the firm manages. The brochure also addresses non‑U.S. securities and currency risks and documents specific custody and standing letter‑of‑authorization procedures for held‑away accounts, and it notes the firm does not maintain a public website.

Not sure where to start?

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
