Phoenix Financial Engineering, LLC

Phoenix Financial Engineering, LLC provides fee‑based financial planning and non‑discretionary investment management to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, and small businesses. Like many independent advisers, the firm delivers portfolio management for individuals and charges asset‑based advisory fees while not acting as custodian.

The firm constructs portfolios and written investment policy statements tailored to each client’s goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance, using both fundamental and technical analysis and employing strategies from long‑term holdings to short‑term trades and option writing. Account reviews are performed at least quarterly (and more often as market conditions dictate), financial planning is offered on an hourly or fixed‑fee basis, and the firm also holds public seminars and workshops that are educational and free to attend.

Noteworthy aspects include the firm’s small, solo‑practitioner scale—one advisor serving a limited client base with roughly $13 million under management—and the advisor’s active academic roles as an adjunct professor, which contribute to the firm’s emphasis on educational outreach. The adviser operates on a non‑discretionary basis, does not vote client proxies, and participates in a national custodian program that provides third‑party services to the firm (a potential source of conflicts disclosed in the brochure).
