Disclosures

Barron's

Barron's Top 1,200 Financial Advisors State by State is based on assets under management, revenue produced for the firm, regulatory record, quality of practice and philanthropic work. Forbes America’s Top RIA Firm's ranking was developed by SHOOK Research and is based on in-person, virtual and telephone due diligence meetings and a ranking algorithm that includes: a measure of each firm’s best practices, client retention, industry experience, review of compliance records, firm nominations; and quantitative criteria, including: assets under management and revenue generated for their firms. Investment performance is not a criterion because client objectives and risk tolerances vary, and advisors rarely have audited performance reports. Neither Forbes nor SHOOK Research receive compensation in exchange for placement on the ranking.
