What It Takes To Be A “Barron’s Advisor”

B arron’s began ranking financial advisors in 2004 with the goal of shining a spotlight on the best people in the business. Many stories had been written in the press over the years about bad financial advisors and the trouble they caused investors. But those stories held little benefit for our readers. What our readers wanted to know is this: Who are the truly great financial advisors and what are they telling their clients?

That’s the question we’ve tried to answer with our advisor rankings.

From the outset, the rankings have been a remarkable success. It is now accepted in the industry that the advisors ranked by Barron’s represent the top 1% of their profession. In fact, it’s become a badge of honor to be called a “Barron’s advisor,” a phrase that’s cropped up informally to describe the folks who make our lists. We began in 2004 with our first ranking of the nation’s top 100 advisors, working with a small firm called the Winner’s Circle, which we acquired in 2008. We published our first list of the Top 100 Women Advisors in 2006. A year after that, we published a list of the Top 100 Independent Advisors, meaning the best advisors not affili-ated with the big full-service firms like Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, Wells Fargo, or UBS.

One problem with all of these lists: They were dominated by advisors in New York, California, Florida, and a few other places where America’s wealth is concentrated. We knew that we were missing great advisors in South Carolina, Alaska, Wyoming, and other states with smaller amounts of wealth.

Our solution: the Top 1,000 state-by-state ranking, which we first published in 2009 and which we expanded to 1,200 spots in 2014. This list grants each state a minimum of six spots and allows proportionately more spots for states with greater assets.

All of our advisor rankings are based on hard numbers: an advisor’s assets under management and annual revenue generated, as well as length of time in the business, client retention, and philanthropic work. Critically important, we carefully check the regulatory record of each advisor we rank.

Every year, readers ask us how to get in touch with specific advisors who are ranked in Barron’s. This special advertising section, published 10 times a year, is an effort to make that easier. This section allows Barron’s-ranked advisors—and only Barron’s-ranked advisors—to publish their phone numbers, email addresses, and Website addresses. A link to this special advertising section can be found on the home page of Barron’s Advisor Center: Barrons.com/AdvisorCenter. The site, launched in October 2016, is devoted to helping advisors serve their clients better. Advisors pay a fee to be listed in this section, but their participation has no bearing on their place in our rankings, nor does it guarantee that they will be ranked in future years. In our advisor rankings, as in all Barron’s journalism, the readers’ interests must come first and not be subordinated to any commercial considerations.

We want to thank all Barron’s-ranked advisors and their firms for helping us make our rankings successful. We also want to thank these advisors for setting the highest standards for their profession and for sharing their investing insights on a regular basis with Barron’s readers.

Advisors pay a fee to be listed in this section, but their participation has no bearing on their place in our rankings, nor does it guarantee that they will be ranked in future years.
