Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota Names JNBA Financial Advisors Finalist in 2015 BBB Torch Awards for Ethics
MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota has named JNBA Financial Advisors a finalist in its 2015 BBB Torch Awards for Ethics. According to Better Business Bureau, the Torch Awards for Ethics celebrate and recognize local companies that demonstrate integrity and a strong commitment to ethics in all that they do.
The winners will be announced during the 2015 BBB Torch Awards for Ethics event on Thursday, October 29, from 11:00 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. at McNamara Alumni Center on the campus of the University of Minnesota.
"JNBA was built nearly four decades ago on a rock-solid foundation of always doing what is best for the client, and that singular focus endures today," says JNBA President Kim Brown. "We continue to build our company using the fee-based model on which JNBA was created, and hold every aspect of the firm to the highest ethical standards."
According to Brown, while JNBA Financial Advisors' legal designation as a fiduciary requires it to act in its clients' best interests at all times, the Bloomington-based firm's disciplined process, business model and people are what drive its ethical philosophy. JNBA's leadership team sets a clear example and specific expectations for ethical behavior. They work hard to create an environment and culture that keeps the conversation around the issue going and have policies and procedures in place that supports people in doing right thing.
In August, Barron's named JNBA Financial Advisors' CEO Richard S. Brown to its 2015 list of the Top 100 Independent Financial Advisors, and earlier this year, Barron's ranked Brown as one of Minnesota's top two financial advisors, making the firm the top Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) in the state. Also, for the sixth year in a row, JNBA was named to Barron's list of the 1,200 top advisors in the country. JNBA has twice been named one of the nation's top 100 independent wealth advisors by Barron's and The Winner's Circle.*
