Rockfence Investment Management

Tommy Brigham serves as Chief Investment Officer and runs investment decisions. He is supported by Larry L. DeRieux as Chief Financial Officer. Brigham previously co-founded Brigham & Company, an investment firm that preceded the family office.

Rockfence sources deal flow through a combination of direct relationships in the Southeastern US business community and through existing GP relationships. The office focuses on real estate and private credit opportunities that often originate through the family's network of former investment banking contacts.

Rockfence is structured as a single-family office managing the Brigham family capital. Unlike some multi-family offices, it does not appear to accept outside capital from other families. The office maintains a lean team and does not have a public-facing fund structure.

The office targets a mix of direct investments in real estate and infrastructure, along with fund commitments across private credit and hedge funds. It participates in both primary fund investments and select co-investments alongside existing GP partners.

The wealth originates from the Brigham family, specifically from proceeds generated by Tommy Brigham's sale of his previous investment banking firm, Brigham & Company. The exact sale date and terms have not been publicly disclosed.

There is no publicly disclosed separate philanthropic foundation operating under the Rockfence name. Any charitable activities by the Brigham family would be conducted independently from the family office.

Rockfence selectively participates in co-investments alongside its GP relationships, particularly in real estate and private credit deals. The office has disclosed positions in middle-market loan vehicles where it has invested alongside established credit managers.
