SEATTLE, Oct. 29, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Merriman has been named within the Top 50 RIA Firms of the Forbes/SHOOK Research list landing at #46 and is one of only three RIA firms headquartered in Washington state. Merriman currently has over $3 billion in Assets Under Management and is committed to a long-term vision of empowering people to Live Fully with smart investment strategies and goal-based financial planning. The company serves clients out of three Washington state offices in Seattle, Bellevue and Spokane and one office in Eugene, Oregon.
The inaugural Forbes/Shook Top RIA list has 100 advisory firms in the US and inclusion on the list was limited to firms run by professionals who have decades of experience, proven track records of seeing clients through market turmoil and preserving their wealth. Forbes' list was compiled by SHOOK Research, which uses quantitative and qualitative data, including interviews, to rank member firms. Merriman CEO Jeremy Burger, CFA, CFP® states, "Unlike other rankings that focus only on growth or AUM, their focus on quality skews the rankings towards firms which create amazing experiences for clients. Because they try to assess how each client is treated, they look at processes that are inherent in each client relationship, what is the team's purpose, 2 and what is the underlying culture throughout the entire firm. Being ranked so high is an incredible recognition of the work we do every day on behalf of our clients."
