Mercer Advisors Named #1 RIA Firm by Barron’s for Third Consecutive Year

Mercer Global Advisors, Inc. was ranked #1 for non-mega RIA firms. Advisers who wish to be ranked fill out a 100+ question survey about their practice. Barron’s verifies that data with regulatory databases and then Barron’s applies their rankings formula to the data to generate a ranking. The formula features three major categories of calculations: (1) Assets (2) Revenue (3) Quality of practice. In each of those categories Barron’s does multiple sub calculations including asset type, growth, client retention, technology spending, succession planning, diversity of their teams, charitable and philanthropic work and compliance records. The rankings are awarded each September based on prior 12-month data through June 30th. No fee was paid for participation in the ranking, however, Mercer Advisors has paid a fee to Barron’s for logo licensing.
