WEST CHESTER, Pa., Feb. 25, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Key Financial President and CEO, Patti Brennan, has just been named by Forbes as #3 Best-In-State Wealth Advisors for 2019. Forbes partnered with Shook Research in reviewing more than 30,000 nominations nationally to determine this list of the nation’s top financial minds. Nominees are judged based on an algorithm of both qualitative and quantitative data. Advisors must have a minimum of seven years’ experience to qualify and are also weighed on additional considerations such as revenue trends, compliance records and assets under management. R.J. Shook, the President of Shook Research, explains, “Here’s what our research has found: the very best advisors are laser focused on having a positive impact on their clients’ lives. They want to add meaning and help them live better lives.” Shook Research looks for advisors that are leading the way in offering best practices and providing high quality experiences for their clients.
Patti Brennan is just that type of advisor. Recognized as a thought leader in the industry and consistently ranked by Forbes, Barron’s and the Financial Times as one of the nation’s top advisors, Brennan sets the bar for other financial advisory firms looking to build their practice while also providing a premier client experience. “As a member of my team recently said, Key Financial is where financial wisdom and caring meet,” states Brennan.
