Many of the Top 100 Independent Financial Advisors in the U.S., as ranked and published in Barron’s August 28, 2017 issue, were in attendance. This annual ranking is the basis for the Top Independent Advisor’s Summit, and the advisors are chosen based on the volume of assets overseen by the advisors and their teams and the quality of the advisors’ practices. The top 100 independent advisors are comprised of Registered Independent Advisors and Advisors from Independent Broker-Dealers. A total of 400 elite advisors took part in the event.
“Learning about and sharing best practices with other Independent Advisors is a great way to move your client relationships ahead”, Hannigan said. “ I always come away with several ideas to engage our clients more fully. This conference was no exception”
This exclusive conference is designed to promote best practices and generate new ideas across the industry. Attendees conducted workshops led by the Top 100 Independent Financial Advisors that explored current issues of importance ranging from portfolio construction and management to investing in overseas markets, managing risk, technology applications, and client relations.
“Investors today are looking to generate income while protecting their portfolios against downside risk,” said Sterling Shea, Head of Advisory Programs. “These top-tier advisors have clients that depend on them to meet critical financial goals for themselves, their families, their businesses or their institutional funds. Advisors will leave this conference better equipped to do just that.”
John Hannigan was one of the 400 financial advisors who was either selected by Barron’s or their affiliated firm to participate in the event. Associated participating firms included: Advisor Group, Ameriprise Financial, Charles Schwab, Fidelity Investments, LPL Financial Services, Pershing, Raymond James, TD Ameritrade Institutional, and Wells Fargo Financial Network.

The “Barron’s Top 100 Independent Financial Advisors” is a select group of individuals who are screened on a number of different criteria. Among factors the survey takes into consideration are the overall size and success of practices, the quality of service provided to clients, adherence to high standards of industry regulatory compliance, and leadership in “best practices” of wealth management. Portfolio performance is not a factor.
