Emerald Asset Management, Inc.

Emerald Asset Management is a privately held, SEC-registered adviser that serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), families, trusts, charitable organizations, and employer retirement plans. It offers portfolio management on both a discretionary and non‑discretionary basis, financial planning and consulting, and ongoing pension consulting, and reports roughly $120.8 million in regulatory assets under management across about 167 client relationships with two advisory professionals.

The firm integrates fundamental, technical, and quantitative analysis into its investment process and runs distinct strategies such as a Global Rising Dividend income-oriented sleeve, a Global Capital Appreciation momentum-driven sleeve, strategic asset allocation models, and custom fixed‑income portfolios. Its active toolkit includes tactical risk management and the use of margin, options, short sales, and inverse/leveraged ETFs, and for properly qualified investors it sources private and alternative investments (e.g., private equity, private credit, direct real estate, hedge funds and exchange funds).

Compared with many peers at this scale, Emerald combines ERISA‑aware pension consulting — with the ability to act in either a 3(21) advisory or 3(38) discretionary fiduciary capacity — and access to a broad set of private/alternative offerings alongside traditional wealth management. The firm also operates through institutional custody and execution relationships (including prime‑brokerage workflows and broker arrangements that support research and back‑office services) and discloses a potential dependence on its small leadership team as a key‑person consideration.
