Where Your First Million Is a Priority, Not a Minimum.
Based in Columbia, SC, Dyadic Financial Management serves SC professionals and business owners with $1M–$2M in investable assets. Through an independent advisory model with LPL Financial — acting as a fiduciary in our advisory relationships — we apply the Audit, Engineer, Sustain framework to financial situations that have outgrown a one-size-fits-all approach.
Built for Complexity
A $1M+ portfolio is not a set-it-and-forget-it account. It requires active coordination across tax strategy, estate planning, investment allocation, and income structuring. Our Audit, Engineer, Sustain™ framework is designed specifically for the financial complexity that comes with professional success.
Full-Time Fiduciary
We are legally required to act in your interest. Through LPL Financial, we operate independently with no proprietary products to sell and no quotas to meet. What we recommend is what we believe is right for your specific situation.

SC-Specific Planning Expertise
South Carolina's tax code contains meaningful planning opportunities for high-income professionals, including favorable pass-through income rates and capital gains exclusions. We work specifically in this market for clients with this level of complexity.
You Are Not a Ticket Number
At Dyadic, your portfolio receives the individualized attention that your asset level and your financial goals deserve. Our practice is deliberately sized to serve a focused group of SC professionals: not hundreds of relationships managed at arm's length.
