<p>The 2019 &quot;Forbes Top Next-Gen Wealth Advisors&quot; award was announced June 2019. Data as of 3/31/2019. SHOOK considered advisors born in 1980 or later with a minimum 4 years as an advisor. Advisors have: built their own practices and lead their teams; joined teams and are viewed as future leadership; or a combination of both. Ranking algorithm is based on qualitative measures: telephone and in-person interviews to measure best practices, client retention, industry experience, credentials, review of compliance records, firm nominations; and quantitative criteria, such as: 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. SHOOK&rsquo;s research and rankings provide opinions intended to help investors choose the right financial advisor and are not indicative of future performance or representative of any one client&rsquo;s experience. Past performance is not an indication of future results. Neither Forbes nor SHOOK Research receive compensation in exchange for placement on the ranking.
