To compile their ranking SmartAsset first gathered all U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)-registered firms in Cincinnati.  They then eliminated any firms from the list that did not have clean disciplinary records, did not manage individual accounts or did not have financial planners on staff.  They then sorted the remaining firms according to assets under management (AUM).  The firms on the list are ranked from the highest AUM to lowest.  The ranking may not be representative of any one client’s experience as it reflects a sample of client experiences.  The award is also not indicative of future performance and there is not guarantee of future investment success.

The ranking is based on discretionary assets under management reported to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as of December 31, 2018. The ranking may not be representative of any one client's experience as it reflects a sample of client experiences. The award is also not indicative of future performance and there is no guarantee of future investment success.

The sixth edition of the FT 300 assesses registered investment advisers (RIAs) on traits desirable to investors.  The formula the Financial Times (FT) uses to grade advisers is based on six broad factors and calculates a numeric score for each adviser.  Areas of consideration include adviser assets under management (AUM), asset growth, the company’s age, industry certifications of key employees, SEC compliance record and online accessibility.

More than 2,000 RIA’s who both register with the SEC and report $300m or more in AUM were invited to participate.  Some 740 RIA’s completed the application and 300 made the final list.  The FT 300 is presented as an elite group and not as a competitive ranking of one to 300.  The ranking may not be representative of any one client’s experience as it reflects a sample of client experiences.  The award is also not indicative of future performance and there is no guarantee of future investment success.

The Financial Times 300 Top Registered Investment Advisors is an independent listing produced annually by the Financial Times (June, 2017). The FT 300 is based on data gathered from RIA firms, regulatory disclosures, and the FT’s research. The listing reflected each practice’s performance in six primary areas: assets under management, asset growth, compliance record, years in existence, credentials and online accessibility.
