An advisory board of noted industry leaders chose the 50 Top Women in Wealth after an extensive process, making their final choices based on the Top 50 Women's accomplishments, thought leadership and inspiration as role models. The exceptional leaders on this list are responsible for managing and directing hundreds of billions of dollars of wealth, for educating and guiding wealth managers and their clients—both individuals and institutions—and regulating the markets and market participants.

"The accomplishments of these women put the lie to the outdated notion that women can't succeed in all levels of wealth management and in every business model, including broker-dealers, banks, asset management firms and the RIA world," said James J. Green, editor of AdvisorOne.com. "These 50 women are accomplished entrepreneurs, thought leaders, money managers, personal wealth managers of all kinds and partners to those wealth managers. Their accomplishments transcend their gender, while their gender helps inform their personal values to their clients and customers."

The 50 Top Women will be profiled throughout the month of July on AdvisorOne.com and in the August issues of Investment Advisor and Research magazines, which comprise the Investment Advisor Group of print and online publications at Summit Business Media.
