SageView Advisory Group Recognized on Forbes' America's Top RIAs List

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. (Oct. 25, 2023) — SageView Advisory Group ("SageView"), one of the nation's leading independent RIA firms, announced it has been recognized as one of America’s Top RIA Firms by Forbes magazine. This is the first time SageView appears on this list.

The firm’s inclusion on the 2023 list, developed by Shook Research for Forbes, reinforces its leadership position at the intersection of retirement planning and wealth management. SageView was ranked No. 153 on a list of 250 firms.

“We are honored to be part of such a prestigious list and among many renowned wealth management firms,” said John Longley, SageView’s CEO. “Our inclusion on the 2023 list recognizes the efforts of our advisors and national team members in recent years as we continue to enhance our reputation as a leader in wealth management services.”

America’s Top RIA Firms are ranked using an algorithm of qualitative criteria collected by Shook Research through due diligence interviews and quantitative data. Factors including revenue trends, assets under management (AUM), compliance records, industry experience and client approach are also considered. Portfolio performance is not a ranking factor.

SageView provides wealth management consulting services in addition to advising on more than 2,100 defined contribution, defined benefit and deferred compensation plans. It has acquired 9 firms since July 2021 when it established a partnership with Aquiline Capital Partners, a leading financial services and technology-focused private equity firm. SageView continues to identify new advisors through acquisitions and recruiting who are a strong cultural and growth fit for the firm.
