IRVINE, CA--(Marketwire - December 8, 2010) - First Foundation Advisors is proud to announce that that it has achieved the No. 14 ranking for total assets under management for wealth managers in 2010 by Wealth Manager magazine. First Foundation is a 20-year-old financial institution that provides integrated investment management, wealth planning, consulting, trust and banking services.
In November 2010, Wealth Manager magazine ranked First Foundation Advisors as No. 14 out of 50 SEC Registered Investment Advisors in the United States based on total assets under management. Banks, broker dealers and trust companies were excluded from the ranking.
"Our brand continues to thrive and this recognition is just another marker demonstrating our strength in a market that has crippled many other firms," said Rick Keller, chairman of First of Foundation. "We've been able to grow not only from new accounts, but from the results of our investing methods."
Wealth Manager's 2010 Annual Top Wealth Managers Survey analyzed 348 of the nation's largest independent wealth management firms. The respondents collectively manage $309 billion in assets under management. Ranking and analysis of the list was done by AdvisorOne, a publication of Summit Business Media.
