Who can be nominated? All fee-only or fee-based planners or RIA professionals are eligible to be nominated or nominate themselves; anyone can submit as many nominations as they wish.

What info is required? The simple nomination form is designed to be a quick listing of information about the planner and the firm, with four open-ended questions asking for your explanation about how the nominee is advancing the professional community and why they’re a rising star. The Financial Planning staff will pick the winners based on the comprehensive merits of each application; the consideration includes one production-based metric, in terms of asking for the firm’s assets under management, but the number will not be the sole determining factor of the award winners.

Additional details: Nominees must have no more than five years of experience in wealth management as of Dec. 31, 2022. All nominations and details will be subject to verification.
