Barron's is not affiliated with Raymond James. Neither Raymond James nor any of its financial advisors pay a fee in exchange for this award/rating. The ranking may not be representative of any one client's experience, is not an endorsement, and is not indicative of advisor's future performance. Investment performance is not an explicit component because not all advisors have audited results and because performance figures often are influenced more by clients' risk tolerance than by an advisor's investment picking abilities. Factors included in the rankings: assets under management, revenue produced for the firm, regulatory record, quality of practice and philanthropic work. The rankings are based on data provided by over 5,000 individual advisors and their firms and include qualitative and quantitative criteria.
