Who We Are
About Us
Founded in 2017, Taylor Hoffman is an investment management company located in Richmond, Virginia, with over $400 million in private funds and separately managed account assets. The firm is built upon three enduring investment principles.
Our Mission
We see investing as a sport—and we want to win. Our goal is to win with colleagues we like and respect for clients that share our same philosophy of long-term thinking. We desire to be relevant—to make a difference. We are passionate about our investment discipline and consider each position in our portfolio to be partial ownership in a business.
Our team, our company, and our process is not for everyone. It is not our goal to be all things to all people. We are not focused on short-term results or quarterly forecasts. We are focused on long-term results and a sense of partnership with our colleagues, clients, and the businesses in our portfolio. We are a deeply loyal culture—loyal to our team, our clients, and our mission of relevance.
