Financial Planning “Best RIAs to Work For” Methodology: Each year, Financial Planning, in partnership with Best Companies Group, identifies Registered Investment Advisory (RIA) firms that excel as employers based on workplace culture and employee experience. To be eligible, firms must be registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), have a minimum of 10 U.S.-based employees, maintain a physical U.S. office location, and have been in business for at least one year. Firms are evaluated through a two-part process that includes an independent assessment of workplace policies, practices, leadership, and operational standards, as well as a comprehensive employee survey measuring engagement, satisfaction, and overall workplace culture. Scores from the employee survey and independent evaluation are combined to determine each firm’s final ranking. Participating firms are benchmarked against other RIAs within their respective size and category, including the total number of firms and advisers evaluated. After tallying the results, 60 RIAs were recognized in the 2025 Best RIAs to Work For list, published by Financial Planning on December 11, 2025. The ranking is not based on investment performance or client outcomes and does not constitute an endorsement of the firm’s advisory services.
