Titanium Advisors

Titanium Advisors

Titanium Advisors began operating in Franklin, Massachusetts, in 2010 under Michael P. Coakley, who spent the prior twenty years originating and underwriting senior-secured loans for regional and super-regional banks. The firm structured its RIA to serve the intersection of high-net-worth families, pension funds, and foundations — a constituency Coakley came to understand during his banking career as chronically underserved in the private-alternatives market. The founding thesis was that pooled commitments from this group could access direct-lending and structured-equity transactions that would otherwise be gated behind institutional $25-million minimums. The firm deploys across three primary asset classes: private credit, commercial and residential real estate debt and equity, and select hedge fund allocations. On the credit side, Titanium originates and participates in senior-secured loans to lower-middle-market companies, a segment Coakley has operated in since the early 1990s. Real-estate activity spans first-lien bridge loans on transitional multifamily and industrial properties in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, alongside equity positions in value-add redevelopments sourced through a network of regional operators. The hedge fund sleeve functions as a complement to the illiquid book, allocating to long/short equity and relative-value strategies. The firm structures deployments as both direct co-investments and fund-of-fund commitments, depending on client suitability and deal access. Titanium remains a compact operation headquartered in Franklin, with its registered-investment-adviser structure allowing it to advise on both pooled and separately managed accounts. As of May 2026, the firm continues to operate at a scale characteristic of a boutique wealth-advisory practice with an alternatives tilt, rather than a multi-strategy asset gatherer (per Altss estimate). No affiliated philanthropic foundations or operating companies have been disclosed. The firm's structural distinction lies in its credit-origination DNA. Most RIAs serving family offices route alternative commitments through third-party feeder funds, whereas Titanium draws on Coakley's bank-underwriting background to evaluate private-credit deals directly — a sourcing posture more typical of a middle-market direct lender than a wealth manager.
