2013 Five Star Wealth Managers
2013 New Jersey
Five Star
Wealth Managers
In a consumer study about dynamics between wealth
managers and their clients, Five Star Professional polled
wealth managers and consumers about communications. Both
groups said that connecting three to four times a year is the
right communications strategy, but expectations are not
aligned in all areas:
• 2 9 percent of consumers want to be contacted by their
wealth manager whenever events require an update; only 7
percent of wealth managers say they contact clients based
on the impact of events.
• 63 percent of consumers say they receive the right amount
of communication from their wealth manager.
From research conducted by Five Star Professional, April 2011.
Wealth managers, broadly defined, are those individuals
who help you manage your financial world and/or
implement aspects of your financial strategies. Common
e x a m p l e s o f w e a l t h m a n a g e r s a re f i n a n c i a l
advisors, financial planners, investment advisors,
tax advisors and estate planning attorneys.
How do you find a wealth manager with experience, who
has a good base of clients with high retention rates, and
who has undergone a regulatory and complaint review?
And when you find them, are they accepting new clients?
New Jersey Monthly and Five Star Professional partnered to
find wealth managers who satisfy 10 objective eligibility
and evaluation criteria that are associated with wealth
managers who provide quality services to their clients.
Among many distinguishing attributes, the average oneyear client retention rate for this year ’s award winners is
more than 96 percent.
A listing of all 2013 New Jersey Five Star Wealth Manager
award winners and select award-winner profiles can be
found on the following pages. Look for more award-winner
profiles in the February issue. For a comprehensive listing
of Five Star Professionals in New Jersey and throughout the
U.S., please visit www.fivestarprofessional.com.
Don’t listen to other people. Investigate
for yourself. Be wary of advisers who say
they never had a down year.”
— Five Star Wealth Manager
A Select
Award
The 2013 Five Star Wealth Managers are a select group, representing less than 2 percent of the wealth
managers in the New Jersey area.(1)
Although this list is a useful tool for anyone looking for help in managing their financial world or
implementing aspects of their financial strategies, it should not be considered exhaustive. Undoubtedly, there are many excellent
wealth managers who, for one reason or another, are not on this year’s list.
Award
In order to consider a broad population of high-quality wealth managers, award candidates
are identified by one of three sources: firm nomination, peer nomination or pre-qualification
based on industry standing. Self-nominations are not accepted. New Jersey award candidates
were identified using internal and external research data, including a survey to more than
9,400 registered financial services professionals and all identified financial service companies in the area that are registered with
FINRA or the SEC.

Disclosures

• The Five Star award is not indicative of the wealth manager’s future performance.
Insights from Five Star
Wealth Managers
Wishful thinking is not
planning. If you plan
for the worst, you will
never be unpleasantly
surprised.”
• Wealth managers may or may not use discretion in their practice and therefore may not manage
their clients’ assets.
• The inclusion of a wealth manager on the Five Star Wealth Manager list should not be construed
as an endorsement of the wealth manager by Five Star Professional or New Jersey Monthly.
• Working with a Five Star Wealth Manager or any wealth manager is no guarantee as to future
investment success, nor is there any guarantee that the selected wealth managers will be awarded
this accomplishment by Five Star Professional in the future.
• F ive Star Professional is not an advisory firm, and the content of this article should not be
considered financial advice. For more information on the Five Star award and the research/
selection methodology, go to www.fivestarprofessional.com.
• (1) 4,049 award candidates in the New Jersey area were considered for the Five Star Wealth
Manager award. 733 (approximately 19 percent of the award candidates) were named 2013 Five
Star Wealth Managers.
Wealth managers were required to certify that any information they provided was accurate.
Criteria 4, 8 and 9 do not apply to attorneys or CPAs.
(4)
As defined by Five Star Professional, the wealth manager has not:
• Been subject to a regulatory action that resulted in a license being suspended or revoked, or payment of a fine.
• Had more than a total of three customer complaints filed against them (settled or pending) with any regulatory authority or
Five Star Professional’s consumer complaint process.
• Individually contributed to a financial settlement of a customer complaint filed with a regulatory authority.

Clients don’t care how
much you know until
they know how much
you care.”
Only invest in
something that
you understand.”
(2)
(3)
What matters most is
how you recover from
setbacks.”
Five Star Professional conducts a regulatory review of each nominated wealth manager using the Investment Adviser Public Disclosure (IAPD) website. Five Star Professional also
uses multiple supporting processes to help ensure that a favorable regulatory and complaint history exists. Data submitted through these processes was applied per the above criteria:
• Each wealth manager who passes the Five Star Professional regulatory review must attest that they meet the definition of favorable regulatory history, based upon the criteria
listed above.
• Five Star Professional promotes via local advertising the opportunity for consumers to confidentially submit complaints regarding a wealth manager.
• Five Star Professional contacted approximately 1 in 12 households identified as having a high propensity to use the services of wealth managers in order to provide consumers the
opportunity to submit complaints regarding a wealth manager. More than 31,100 households in the New Jersey area were contacted.
The Five Star Wealth Manager selection criteria was updated for the 2012 award year. 2005 – 2011 Five Star Wealth Managers scored highest in overall satisfaction based on feedback
from clients, peers and industry experts. No more than 7 percent of wealth managers receive the award each year. The selection process for the 2005 – 2011 award winners can be
found at www.fivestarprofessional.com/2011/wealth_managers_research_overview.php.

We know that successful people are bombarded with an
avalanche of financial planning information from print, TV,
radio and the Internet. In addition, they often have multiple
advisors handling different parts of their plan, resulting in
planning gaps which can have catastrophic consequences.
How do you cut through all the noise and get the advice and
coordination you need to make good decisions?
Since 1990, we have been providing the right advice to our
clients by first listening to what is important to them. Then our
proprietary planning process, The Total Wealth SolutionTM, helps
them uncover all available options, and together, we select the
ones that most effectively get them to their goals. We then lift
the burden of coordination off of our clients, so they can rest
easy knowing we have handled the details.

We all realize that the world we live in is rapidly changing. Our past experiences
offer little guidance for today’s world. Planning, in order to be successful, cannot
be static, but instead must be ongoing — continuously adapting to new tax laws,
new market outlooks, new life situations and your goals as they change. Financial
success doesn’t come from a magic strategy or a hidden secret. It comes from
planning carefully, making good decisions, reviewing your financial plan on a
regular basis and making adjustments as necessary. It is about strategy! We would
like to share our planning process philosophy with you.

work closely with his clients’ tax, legal and other trusted advisors. He is
extremely accessible and communicates often with clients.
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC (“Morgan Stanley”), its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors do
not provide tax or legal advice. Clients should consult their tax advisor for matters involving taxation and tax
planning and their attorney for matters involving trust and estate planning and other legal matters.
Today, people are terrified of outliving their money, frustrated with
having no plans in place and upset that brokers are only interested in
trying to sell them the latest hot product. As an independent advisor,
I have nothing to sell. Our process-driven approach focuses solely
on our clients' goals and concerns. Only then do we recommend
nonproprietary tools and strategies to help them work toward their
goals … all of them. All under one roof.
