XPX MARYLAND MEMBER CRAIG DECKER NAMED TO FORBES’ LIST OF BEST-IN-STATE WEALTH ADVISORS
Annapolis, MD – Craig Decker, Managing Director, of Alex. Brown/Decker Global Wealth Group located at 2077 Somerville Road, Suite 320, Annapolis, Maryland 21401 was among the Raymond James-affiliated advisors named to the Forbes list of Best-In-State Wealth Advisors. The list, which recognizes advisors from national, regional and independent firms, was released online April 7, 2022.
The Forbes ranking of Best-In-State Wealth Advisors, developed by SHOOK® Research, is based on an algorithm of qualitative criteria, mostly gained through telephone and in-person due diligence interviews, and quantitative data. Those advisors that are considered have a minimum of seven years of experience, and the algorithm weights factors like revenue trends, assets under management, compliance records, industry experience and those that encompass best practices in their practices and approach to working with clients. Portfolio performance is not a criterion due to varying client objectives and lack of audited data. Out of approximately 34,925 nominations, more than 6,550 advisors received the award. This ranking is not indicative of an advisor’s future performance, is not an endorsement, and may not be representative of individual clients’ experience. Neither Raymond James nor any of its Financial Advisors or RIA firms pay a fee in exchange for this award/rating. Raymond James is not affiliated with Forbes or SHOOK®Research, LLC.
Decker, who joined Alex. Brown/Raymond James in 2016, has more than 25 years of experience in the financial services industry. Decker and his team focus on successful multigenerational families whose wealth has come from business ownership and the successful transition away from that business. Tax mitigation is a primary issue, as is passing on the values of the family, maximizing wealth and generational impact for what we call The 100 Year Plan.
