FA's RIA survey is a ranking based on assets under management at year-end (2022) of independent RIA firms that file their own ADV with the SEC and was awarded in July 2023. FA's RIA ranking orders firms from largest to smallest, based on AUM reported to us by firms that voluntarily complete and submit FA's survey by our deadline. We do our best to verify AUM by reviewing ADV forms. 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. Firms must have at least $500 million in assets under management as of December 31, 2022, to be included in the print edition of Financial Advisor magazine's 2023 RIA survey. Firms with under $500 million will be included the FA's expanded 2023 online RIA survey. Kovitz Investment Group did not pay FA Magazine to participate in the survey. For more information, see here.
