RIA Intel is delighted to announce the finalists for its third annual RIA Intel Awards.
We had close to 300 nominations across 12 categories, from massive RIAs to entrepreneurs just starting out. Our finalists were chosen from an extremely talented pool of candidates who represent companies and people that are changing the face of wealth management.
To represent the growth of the industry, this year we included additional categories such as Alternatives Asset Manager of the Year and created separate nominations for RIAs of the Year based on their amount of assets under management.
We are also pleased to announce this year’s class of Rising Stars. These are individuals that we think represent the future of wealth management. Many have started new innovative businesses, lead impressive initiatives at their companies, or have taken on personal philanthropic work that is changing lives and deserves to be recognized.
A full list of the finalists and the Rising Stars can be found below.
Award winners will be announced at the RIA Intel Awards dinner on June 5, 2024, at the Four Seasons Hotel in Boston. Please register here to attend.
