Mr. Christopher was named to Barron’s list of “Top 100 Financial Advisers” as well as Los Angeles Business Journal’s list of “Top 40 Wealth Advisers in Southern California.”

Barron’s “Top 100 Financial Advisors” bases its ratings on qualitative criteria: professionals with a minimum of 7 years of financial services experience, acceptable compliance records, client retention reports, customer satisfaction, and more. Financial Advisors are quantitatively rated based on varying types of revenues and assets advised by the financial professional, with weightings associated for each. Because individual client portfolio performance varies and is typically unaudited, this rating focuses on customer satisfaction and quality of advice. The rating may not be representative of any one client’s experience because it reflects a sample of all of the experiences of the Financial Advisor’s clients. The rating is not indicative of the Financial Advisor’s past or future performance. Neither THE FIRM nor its Financial Advisors or Private Wealth Advisors pay a fee to Barron's in exchange for the rating. Barron’s is a registered trademark of Dow Jones & Company, L.P.
