We are pleased to announce Advisor Perspectives, Inc., a leading publisher of investment and practice management-related content for financial advisors, recently released The Advisor Choice™ awards for the 2017 rankings on the asset managers advisors are most likely to recommend to their peers. Of the seven categories surveyed, Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA) came in first place in four of the seven categories surveyed and took second place in the three remaining categories. Significantly, DFA claimed the top spot as the fund company advisors were most likely to recommend “overall”.
According to Christina Doss, managing director with Saltmarsh Financial Advisors, “The frequent recognition Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA) receives continues to validate the strong alignment between Saltmarsh Financial Advisors and our shared investment philosophy with Dimensional Fund Advisors. It is particularly rewarding to see so many of my peers across the financial services landscape now recommending DFA despite the lack of financial incentive to do so. We began our relationship with DFA more than 20 years ago and are fortunate to have direct access to some of the brightest academic minds in the financial industry and their Nobel-prize winning research which ultimately benefits our Saltmarsh clients.” For a complete list of categories in which DFA received recognition through the Advisor Choice™ awards please see link below.
