The Top 100
Here are America’s best financial advisers from brokerages and banks, as identified by the Winner’s Circle organization. The advisers, it says, follow the industry’s best practice and have the biggest books of
business. The scoring system assigns a value of 100 to the top adviser, then calculates the others’ scores by comparing each with the No. 1 finisher in terms of assets under management, revenue, customer
satisfaction and other factors. Total assets are those of the adviser’s team; they include both those at the firm and those held elsewhere but overseen by the team. Institutional assets are given less weight in the
scoring. N indicates an adviser is new to the list this year.
