If you're in investment sales, you already know that one of the biggest problems when selling to the RIA (Registered Investment Adviser) marketplace is the sheer size of the channel.
The RIA market across the United States consists of over 36,000 firms, which means that while there are plenty to choose from when looking for new clients, narrowing down the list to only those that allocate to outside managers is key.
For example, here at Dakota, we’ve raised over $6 billion from over 350 RIAs, and that has been possible because we qualify and curate our list to only RIAs that allocate to outside managers.
In an effort to help narrow down the sheer size of the market, we’ve put together a list of the top 10 RIAs in each major metro area across the country. To determine our list, we looked for three things:
We have qualified 36 RIAs with AUMs ranging from $50B to $137M in Minneapolis that meet our criteria.
Below are the top 10 RIAs in Minneapolis from that list. However, this is by no means a “best of” list, as there are so many high quality RIAs in Minneapolis and around the country. We just wanted to give you a place to start.
AUM: $50,000,000,000
