*Financial Times 300 Top Registered Investment Advisers

The Financial Times 300 Top Registered Investment Advisers is an independent listing produced annually by the Financial Times (June 2018).

*FORBES TOP 250 WEALTH ADVISORS FOR 2018 & FORBES BEST IN STATE WEALTH ADVISORS 2019

Ranking is for Randy Conner of Churchill Management Group (“CMG”). CMG did not pay a fee to participate in the Rankings, but may purchase reprints of the Forbes article. The rankings were developed by SHOOK Research, and are based on an algorithm of qualitative criteria, mostly gained through telephone and in-person due diligence interviews, and quantitative data. Those advisors that are considered have a minimum of seven years experience, and the algorithm weighs factors like revenue trends, assets under management, compliance records, industry experience and those that encompass best practices in their practices and approach to working with clients. Portfolio performance is not a criterion due to varying client objectives and lack of audited data. Neither Forbes or SHOOK receive a fee in exchange for rankings. The rating may not be representative of any one client’s experience because the rating reflects a quantitative and qualitative analysis of factors that may include only a sample of the experience of CMG’s Clients. The ranking is not indicative of future performance.

The Barron’s ranking is for Fred Fern of Churchill Management Group (“CMG”).

The rating is not indicative of future performance.  CMG did not pay a fee to participate in the Rankings, but did purchase reprints of the Barron’s article.

According to Barron’s: The formula Barron’s uses to rank advisors is proprietary. 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. The quality-of-practice component includes an evaluation of each advisor’s regulatory record.

The rankings for all states are based on data provided by over 4,000 of the nation’s most productive advisors. Factors included in the rankings: assets under management, revenue produced for the firm, regulatory record, quality of practice and philanthropic work. Investment performance isn’t an explicit component because not all advisors have audited results and because performance figures often are influenced more by Clients’ risk tolerance than by an advisor’s investment-picking abilities. The quality-of-practice component includes an evaluation of each advisor’s regulatory record.
