First Principles Investment Management LLC

Overview

First Principles Investment Management LLC is an independent, individually owned registered investment adviser that provides portfolio management and financial planning primarily for individuals, families and small businesses, with some institutional clients. The firm charges a mix of percentage-of-AUM, fixed, and performance-based fees. It identifies as non-ESG active and is not set up as a multi-state adviser or a pension consultant. While it uses external third-party managers for certain alternative exposures, it does not present itself as a capital allocator. Advisory work centers on discretionary portfolio management and financial planning. The firm’s stated preference is equity-focused investing, and its business activities are weighted toward direct portfolio management for private clients rather than operating as a fund sponsor or allocator.
