About

Brasada Capital Management is a registered investment adviser that provides discretionary portfolio management across three product lines: it serves as investment manager and sponsor of a private pooled long/short equity fund (minimum initial Fund investment of $500,000), acts as sub-advisor to unaffiliated advisors, and manages separately managed accounts for individuals, retirement plans, trusts and other institutions. The firm’s clients therefore include both individual and high-net-worth investors as well as institutional and pooled-vehicle investors.

The Fund’s investment process is bottom-up and fundamentals-driven, with idea generation from quantitative screens, company meetings and sell-side research, and the use of long and short equity positions supplemented by derivatives, options, ETFs and hedging for risk management. For sub-advised and separate accounts Brasada implements asset-allocation and security selection consistent with each client’s negotiated guidelines and notes that each product type is run by a different portfolio manager.

Several features of Brasada are less common among similarly sized multi-advisor teams: it is both a private fund adviser and a fund sponsor with an affiliated general partner that receives a performance-based profit allocation subject to a high-water-mark, while also providing sub-advisory services to other investment advisers. The brochure also discloses operational distinctions—Fund trades are run separately from other client accounts, the Fund may generate soft-dollar research credits through its prime broker, and as of 12/31/2025 the firm reported that a majority of assets were in non-performance-fee products, reflecting multiple product types and fee arrangements.
