FA 2023 RIA Survey & Ranking methodology: FA's RIA survey is based on assets under management at the year-end of independent RIA firms that file their own ADV form with the SEC. FA's RIA ranking orders firms from largest to smallest, based on AUM reported to FA by firms that voluntarily complete and submit FA's survey by the deadline. FA verifies AUM by reviewing ADV forms.
FA 2023 RIA Survey & Ranking Eligibility: To be eligible for the ranking, firms must be independent registered investment advisors and file their own ADV statement with the SEC and provide financial planning and related services to individual clients. Corporate RIA firms and investment advisor representatives (IARs) are not eligible for this survey. A corporate RIA is a registered investment advisor, most often formed by a broker-dealer that files an ADV with the SEC. Advisors who are affiliated with the broker-dealer or other entities' corporate RIA may offer investment advice. They are considered Investment Advisor Representatives (IARs) of the corporate RIA. All the assets under management of the IARs are included in the corporate RIA's ADV filed with the SEC.
