Top 40 Advisors Under 40 countdown: 21-40

Top 40 Under 40

Financial advisors are often on the lookout for ways to grow their businesses, but they would have a long way to go to catch up to this group of brokers.

Each year, Financial Planning recognizes the top producing advisors under 40 years old among wirehouses and regional firms. In the 2021 edition of the Top 40 Advisors Under 40, the winners collectively generated $167 million in annual production and oversaw $37 billion in combined client assets.

At an average age of 37, the advisors hail from 16 different states, plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The top producing advisors in some cases operate far from Wall Street, even as they work for well known wealth managers such as UBS, Merrill Lynch and Ameriprise.
