Douglas Stirling, Executive Vice President/Wealth Management, Financial Advisor has been named to the Forbes 2021 Best-In-State Wealth Advisors list. “Congratulations to Doug for receiving this prestigious recognition, which is a testament to his commitment to offer the highest standard of success in financial relationships. Doug represents the best of our industry,” said Jerry Lombard, President, Private Client Group.
The Forbes Best-in-State Wealth Advisors rankings spotlights more than 5,000 advisors from Alaska to Florida with team assets amounting to more than $6 trillion. Developed by SHOOK Research, the award is based on an algorithm of qualitative criterion, mostly gained through telephone and in-person due diligence interviews, and quantitative data. Advisors that are considered have a minimum of seven years’ experience, and the algorithm weighs factors like revenue trends, assets under management, compliance records, industry experience and those that encompass the highest standards of best practices. Portfolio performance is not a criterion due to varying client objectives and lack of audited data. Neither Forbes nor SHOOK receive a fee in exchange for rankings.
