About USA TODAY's Best Financial Advisory Firm List: The ranking was tabulated by market research firm Statista to rank the top 500 RIA firms. The ranking of the best (“RIA Firms”), published in April , 2024, is based on two dimensions: recommendations by peer financial advisors, clients as well as industry experts and a firm’s development of AUM. Recommendations were collected via an independent survey among over 25,000 individuals. Clients, industry experts and financial advisors working for an RIA firm could recommend another RIA firm they find commendable. Self-recommendations were prohibited and were therefore not included in the evaluation.AUM development was analyzed both in the short- and long-term using publicly available data. Short-term AUM development was calculated over a twelve-month period from January 2023 to January 2024, while long-term development spanned a five-year period from January, 2019 to February 24, 2024 with the ADV data being as of 12/31 each year. The final score was calculated by weighting recommendations at 20% and AUM development at 80%. Within the AUM growth metric, short-term and long-term growth were each weighted 30/70. The final score was calculated as follows: 20% x recommendation score + 80% x AUM development score = final score. All surveyed individuals were selected at random.
