DFX Intelligence

RIA Intelligence

Registered investment advisers, the advisors registered through them, the capital they report, the private vehicles they run and the people who own them, as a graph with a filing date behind every number. RAUM is what the adviser filed, a move is two registration dates, and a class is a rule you can read.

Advisor moves

Arrivals at Balefire, LLC

A move is two dates on IAPD: the day a person’s registration through one firm ended and the day a registration through another began. The type reads the class of each firm. This is the movement tape the mobility research is validated against; it says what happened, never why, and never who is about to.
