Barron’s specifically awarded Stewart Massey, Founding Partner and Chief Investment Strategist a ranking for the seventh consecutive year; five times as one of the nation’s top 100 independent advisors (2010-2014), and three times as one of the Top Financial Advisors ranked by state (2015-2017). The rankings are based on data provided by individual advisors and their firms. Advisor data is confirmed via regulatory databases, cross-checks with securities firms and conversations with individual advisors. The formula Barron’s uses to rank advisors is proprietary. It has three major components: assets managed, revenue produced and quality of practice. Investment returns are not a component of the rankings because an advisor’s returns are dictated largely by the risk tolerance of clients. Individuals/advisory firms did not pay a fee to be considered or placed on the final list of “Barron’s Top 100 Independent Financial Advisors.” The quality-of-practice component includes an evaluation of each advisor’s regulatory record.
