300 Most Influential Advisors in Defined Contribution Voting Begins

 
 

Cast your vote for a deserving advisor today!

 

In the last couple of months, almost 2,000 advisors have been nominated for the distinguished honor of being recognized as one of The 401kWire’s 300 Most Influential Advisors in Defined Contribution.  Now it’s up to the industry to decide!  Voting begins today and will end Wednesday, November the 11th. 

 

Voting is open to both 401kWire subscribers and non-subscribers alike.  You can focus your voting on specific market segments and/or states, if you like, or vote for advisors across the marketplace.  Nominated advisors may also vote for themselves.

 

401kWire subscribers: CLICK HERE to vote

 

Non-401kWire Members: To ensure the legitimacy of the process, non-members can register and get login info to vote by sending an email to staff@investmentwires.com and including their name, company, corporate email address, title/position and contact number.

 

As a reminder, The 401kWire will host a special dinner and awards ceremony to recognize the 300 Most Influential Advisors in Defined Contribution, held at the DCP Institute conference next month. All advisor nominees and the ultimate "Top 300”" award winners are cordially invited to attend the conference, December 6th – 8th at the PGA Resort and Spa in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.  At the awards dinner, several advisors from each market segment will be recognized as finalists for the Most Influential Defined Contribution Advisor award in their market segment.  One advisor in each market segment will win this top award.

The DCP Institute Conference is a 2 ½ day "by invitation only" advisor business development summit for leading retirement plan specialists from around the country.  If you are a nominee for the 300 Most Influential Advisors in Defined Contribution award, we recommend you register for this event as soon as possible.
