SCARSDALE, NY--(Marketwired - Jul 11, 2014) - Palisades Hudson Asset Management L.P. was recently named to the inaugural Financial Times 300 Top Registered Investment Advisers list. 

The international business newspaper chose America's top independent investment firms based on six factors: assets under management (AUM), AUM growth, years the firm has been in existence, industry certifications of staff, SEC compliance record, and online accessibility.
