The Pyracantha Process

The Pyracantha Process

Pyracantha (from the Greek words pyr for fire and akanthus for thorn) is a genus of large, thorny evergreen shrubs in the family Rosaceae, also commonly referred to as Firethorn. The Pyracantha is the ideal plant for nesting birds in need of a protected nesting site. In autumn, the Firethorn plant also provides berries to nurture these very same birds. Protect and nurture is how our firm feels about our clients' wealth management experience.

Our team has developed and refined a process to help simplify the complexities of wealth and finance. We call this the Pyracantha Process. Our dynamic and panoramic process helps you look into the future with anticipation instead of apprehension. It consists of a deep discovery process to make certain we have a unique understanding of your goals. We utilize our deep experience to implement best-in-class solutions.

Our Philosophy

At Firethorn Wealth Partners, we believe there are many roles that a Professional Wealth Advisor should play for their clients.

Our firm was created to disrupt what many people think of when they hear “investment advisor” or “financial consultant.” We are putting the client at the center of the relationship and removing competing interests in the form of a corporate parent and/or shareholders (publicly owned corporate parent).

Suitability does not equate to putting the client’s best interest first. Most of our competitors still operate in a suitability environment, which may not always result in what is in the best interest of the client. At Firethorn, we hold ourselves accountable to a Fiduciary Standard. This is something that we believe every client should expect and deserve. We operate a transparent and independent business that incorporates all the facets of wealth management into a client’s plan. This creates an environment that fosters long term relationships and successful outcomes.

At Firethorn, We Are:

  • OBJECTIVE
    We are a privately owned independent investment advisor. Our view is free of the conflicts that come with shareholders and a parent company in a world full of product manufacturers and sales-oriented cultures.
  • SPECIALISTS
    We provide a unique and transparent assessment of each client’s financial life and goals.
  • EDUCATORS
    We teach clients about understanding their goals and what is required for long term success. Education equates to client calmness and stability.
