ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dynasty Financial Partners today announced that Founders Grove Wealth Partners has joined its industry-leading platform of technology-driven independent wealth management tools and services.
Based in Richmond, VA, Founders Grove, a fiduciary firm, will operate on a fee-only basis, with the goal of offering premium technology and customized advisory offerings to meet the evolving needs of their clients, who include entrepreneurs, business owners, and corporate executives.
Led by Financial Advisor Jeremiah Winters as Founder, Managing Partner, CEO, Founders Grove has four professionals, including two advisors, who previously managed over $750 million at Salomon and Ludwin. Joining Winters are:
- Kate Atwood (Founder, Managing Partner, President)
- Jen Thompson (Chief Operating Officer)
- Abbey Sorensen (Director of Client Experience)
“We are pleased to welcome the Founders Grove team to our Dynasty family and thrilled to include a new firm in the steadily expanding Richmond, Virginia market," said Shirl Penney, CEO and Founder of Dynasty Financial Partners. "Founders Grove impressed us with their deep commitment to their clients, and their embrace of independence as the best means of putting them first. We were also impressed with the team’s desire to build and own their own business, like other Dynasty Network firms, and they felt that being in the Dynasty Network would allow them to be independent but not alone.”
Currently, 55 independent firms representing 370 advisors comprise the Dynasty network, and the firm maintains over $88 billion on its core technology platform.
The Founders Grove team chose its name to reflect the generous and dynamic nature of their clients, who have worked hard to create rich legacies for their communities and families. The firm hopes to offer expert and personalized attention to help them continue to prosper, and even branch out into new endeavors.
On the team’s decision to launch into independence with Dynasty, Winters said: “We knew we needed a partner that would allow us to continue to operate as fiduciaries and Dynasty's triangulation of advice resonated with us. We want to keep products and client assets and custody separate from advice so that we have the freedom to do what we believe is best for our clients. We wanted a partner that had expertise in technology, cyber security, human resources, payroll, and many other aspects of running a business so our clients could be our primary focus. We couldn’t be more proud to have Founders Grove powered by Dynasty!”
Founders Grove has selected Charles Schwab for custody of their client assets.
