About

TRI-AD Capital Management I, LLC provides fee-only investment advisory and retirement plan consulting services primarily to plan sponsors and institutional retirement plans, and also supports employer-sponsored Health Savings Account (HSA) products and the SnapIRA retail IRA product. The firm does not act as custodian and delivers plan-level investment selection, monitoring, participant education support, and product-level investment management for TRI-AD Actuaries’ HSA offering.

TCMI’s reported assets are largely managed on a non‑discretionary basis — the brochure states approximately $618,950,543 of non‑discretionary assets under management — and investment decisions are documented in Investment Policy Statements with periodic reviews at least annually. For certain retirement plans TCMI serves as a limited‑scope 3(21) fiduciary and has contracted with LeafHouse to provide 3(38) discretionary investment manager services; its SnapIRA uses DFA model portfolios managed by Statherós Financial Solutions, with the adviser generally exercising only periodic rebalancing authority.

The firm is wholly owned by Navia Benefit Solutions and affiliated with TRI-AD Actuaries, LLC, an arrangement that links investment advice to a pension consultant and is relatively uncommon for firms in its peer group. TCMI also has a small client base (15 clients) and a high level of AUM per advisor (over $200 million per advisor given two advisers), and it focuses on plan‑ and product‑level relationships rather than individual high‑net‑worth or retail client relationships.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

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. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
