All identified broker dealers, RIA firms and FINRA-registered representatives in the area were contacted to gather wealth manager nominations. Fewer than seven percent of wealth managers in the area receive the recognition. The quality of client service provided by nominated wealth managers was evaluated using ten objective criteria, but results may not represent a particular client experience. Not all wealth managers use discretionary control to manage clients’ assets. Five Star Professional, manages the Program, but does not endorse listed wealth managers.
