Third Avenue Management Launches on Ridgeline Investment Management Platform

Subscribe to our newsletter

Third Avenue Management, a New York-based asset manager catering to private and institutional clients, has transitioned to Ridgeline’s cloud-native investment management platform. The firm, which specialises in Global Value, Small-Cap, Real Estate, and International Value strategies, selected the platform to modernise its operations and support long-term growth, with a particular focus on Separately Managed Account (SMA) strategies.

By adopting this system, Third Avenue has consolidated a patchwork of legacy systems into a unified front-to-back platform. The transition integrates trading, compliance, accounting, reporting, and client servicing into a single source of truth. Asset management firms moving to this platform typically consolidate an average of six to nine disparate systems, reducing vendor complexity and centralising operational data.

The implementation was completed in partnership with STP Investment Services, which will act as Third Avenue’s managed services provider. STP is collaborating with the firm to handle daily reconciliations and post-trade settlements. The migration reflects a wider industry trend of asset managers adopting unified, AI-embedded technology to improve client personalisation and streamline operations.
