I founded Brenthurst Wealth in 2004 with co-founders Sue Heystek and Brian Butchart, with the aim to establish Brenthurst Wealth as the most effective attainable advisory organization in SA. It could never be the largest, but it could be the best. And this has been our guiding gentle ever considering that we opened our little little workplace in Fourways, Johannesburg, together with my private assistant Celeste Phakathi and a handful of clientele.
Nowadays, I am very pleased to say we have a nationwide existence with 8 workplaces across the region and satellite places of work masking the rest, 65 workers associates and far more than 20 skilled money planners, most of whom are Certified Economical Planner® pros.
And normally was there the query: can we do better? In how we do issues, quality of analysis, degree of impartial information, programs and technology—all the unseen items that make for a holistic fiscal preparing and advisory corporation.
Jointly with numerous important players in the media, none more than Alec Hogg, to start with at Moneyweb and thereafter founder at BizNews, have we designed an awareness and a presence which I consider has designed a difference in the investment discussion in SA which tends to be dominated by the significant asset supervisors with their noticeable vested passions. The troubles being debated now, ended up to start with elevated in the course of our sequence of seminars – identified as Quo Vadis SA? – hosted all over the place in 2015 and 2016. Sadly, several of the forecasts made in people times have turned out to be quite precise. For a several several years, we were fortuitous to protected the products and services of prime-rated economist Mike Schüssler who supplied Brenthurst and its clients with high quality and in-depth economic research. He unfortunately passed away two months back: a big reduction to all
The benefits from the Intellidex surveys converse for themselves: for 6 a long time Brenthurst has showcased in the top a few advisory categories, 2 times coming out on leading (2017 and 2020). In addition, in years past have we also highlighted in the top partnership supervisor class. Sonia du Plessis head of Brenthurst Stellenbosch, acquired the award in 2019 when the class was to start with introduced. Managing Director, Brian Butchart is the winner of the partnership supervisor classification this calendar year and positioned in the major 3 consecutively, in 2020 and 2021 and André Basson, head of Brenthurst Val de Vie was the runner-up in 2021.
This year all three top rated marriage advisors are from Brenthurst – from rigid competitiveness from virtually 50 wealth management providers in SA. I couldn’t be prouder.
Controlling Director Brian Butchart CFP® was introduced as the winner of the 2022 romance supervisor group, with Sonia Du Plessis CFP® and Head of Brenthurst Prosperity Stellenbosch in next position, adopted by Renee Eagar CFP® and Head of Brenthurst Wealth Claremont, Cape Town in third put.
The very first 6 months of 2022 were being a rollercoaster trip for traders with numerous aspects driving marketplaces downward. Couple of areas of the entire world ended up spared, and marketplaces almost everywhere have declined as inflation accelerates (in some nations around the world to highs very last witnessed 40 several years back), curiosity costs are hiked and the affect of war in Eastern Europe weighs on sentiment.
It is all through the challenging situations in marketplaces that the great importance of client associations and standard interaction are highlighted. Our dependable outstanding functionality in this very regarded award signifies that we keep on to deliver the steering and suggestions our purchasers hope from us.

Quite a few clientele have outlined that the cause they are purchasers of corporations is simply because of the great company they acquire from their romance professionals.
Brenthurst was rated in 3rd place in the group for boutique wealth professionals this calendar year, the sixth time we were outlined among the top rated 5 firms in SA. To remain among the best in the land demands a staff energy – advisors, as perfectly as the administrative and help groups – all contributed to this us keeping this ranking.
Brenthurst also ranked among the top businesses in the archetypes for passive lump-sum buyers and entrepreneurs.
