Birmingham, Alabama-Based Fairvoy Private Wealth Goes Independent with Dynasty Financial Partners

Highly Credentialed, Multi-Disciplinary Team of Veteran Advisors, Which Previously Managed $550 Million, Offers Personalized Investment and Planning Services to Select Clientele

Dynasty Financial Partners today announced that Fairvoy Private Wealth has joined its industry-leading platform of technology-driven wealth management tools and services.

Fairvoy Private Wealth is an independent wealth management firm based in Birmingham, Ala., staffed by professionals from Merrill Lynch, including:

• Stephen Davis, CFP®, ChFC®, APMA®, Managing Partner, Senior Private Wealth Advisor
• Neal Carroll, CFP®, CPWA®, CPFA®, Chief Operating Officer, Senior Private Wealth Advisor
• Ashley Davis, CPA®, CRPC®, Chief Financial Officer, Senior Private Wealth Advisor
• H. Alan Word, Director, Senior Private Wealth Advisor
• Claudia Johnston, Vice President, Private Wealth Advisor
• Alma Maric, Vice President, Associate Wealth Advisor

The name "Fairvoy" invokes the firm's dedication to fairness and upholding its clients’ best interests on their wealth-management voyages. The practice considers its move to independence as a win for its clients, who benefit from personalized service. Fairvoy, a fiduciary firm, will operate on a fee-only basis, with a goal of offering its clients best-in-class technology, and expand its advisory offerings over time to meet their evolving needs.

“We are pleased to welcome the Fairvoy team to our Dynasty family and thrilled to include a new firm in the growing Birmingham market," said Shirl Penney, CEO and Founder of Dynasty Financial Partners. "Fairvoy impressed us with their deep commitment to their clients, and their embrace of independence as the best means of putting them first.”

For Fairvoy's Stephen Davis, the move to independence with Dynasty followed "years of research on all our options, and the realization that Dynasty's technology positions us to communicate easily with clients and provide customized planning focused on their immediate and long-term needs.”

Neal Carroll, also of Fairvoy, calls Dynasty a "strong partner, "whose administrative support, advanced technology, and deep investment capabilities led us to this opportunity to stay on top of a rapidly changing industry while at every turn aligning our interests with those of our clients."

Dynasty's network consists of 55 independent firms and over 370 advisors. The firm administers more than $87 billion on its core technology platform.

In January 2024, Steadmont Advisors, another Birmingham-based team that previously managed $420 million in assets, also joined Dynasty.

Fairvoy has selected Fidelity as its custodian, Black Diamond for performance reporting, and eMoney Advisor for financial planning.
