Forbes rankings are developed by SHOOK Research and are created using an algorithm that includes both qualitative (in-
person, virtual and telephone due diligence meetings; client impact; industry experience; review of best practices and
compliance records; and firm nominations) and quantitative (assets under management and revenue generated for their
firms) data. Investment performance is not a criterion because client objectives and risk tolerances vary, and advisors
rarely have audited performance reports. Certain awards include a demographic component to qualify. These rankings for
each applicable year are based on the opinions of SHOOK Research, LLC, are not indicative of future performance or
representative of any one client's experience and are based on data from the previous two calendar years. Forbes
