About

tru Independence Asset Management, LLC provides discretionary and non-discretionary investment management, financial planning, and pension consulting to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, retirement plans, and other institutional and business clients, managing approximately $336.9 million in client assets across more than one thousand accounts. Its services include the use and selection of Independent Managers, third‑party sub‑advisors, and digital platforms such as Betterment for Advisors and held‑away solutions via a third‑party platform.

The firm constructs diversified portfolios using both active and passive strategies across equities, fixed income, alternatives and exchange‑traded funds, and may employ options and other derivatives as well as margin/borrowing for customized high‑net‑worth strategies when appropriate. TIAM monitors accounts on an ongoing basis, offers both standalone financial plans and integrated portfolio management, and sponsors the YellowWood Wealth Solutions wrap program for a substantial portion of its assets.

TIAM is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sanctuary Wealth and maintains affiliations with multiple other advisory and asset‑management entities, and several supervised persons are registered representatives of broker‑dealers (including arrangements with APW Capital and Sanctuary Securities), which enables access to brokerage and insurance platforms (including DPL). The combination of acting as a wrap‑program sponsor (about $308.2 million under the wrap), operating through a mix of digital and held‑away platforms, and maintaining affiliated adviser and brokerage/insurance relationships is less common among peer team firms and is described in its brochure as creating specific service options and potential conflicts of interest.

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
