A global holding company of thirty-eight operating businesses across capital, materials, and markets. We import and export diamonds and industrial goods. We build the trading systems hedge funds run on. And we move it all through a distribution network we own — from origin to market, held for decades, not quarters.

Three pillars. One balance sheet. No division is for show.
Each division operates under its own brand, with its own management. Meridian owns the balance sheet — not the noise.
