Financial Advisor magazine has once again named FAS Wealth Partners among America’s Top RIAs. The FAS Wealth Partners Top RIA recognition places the firm at No. 160 nationally on the publication’s 2026 list.
For FAS, the recognition reflects the firm’s continued growth and longstanding commitment to serving high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals and families.
FAS Wealth Partners Earns No. 160 Top RIA Ranking
“For nearly five decades, we’ve believed that sophisticated wealth management should be deeply personal,” said Jake Barnes, Managing Partner. “The greatest compliment we can receive is when a client introduces us to someone they care about. This recognition reflects that trust, along with the dedication of our team to earning it every day. While rankings are never our goal, we’re honored to be recognized alongside many outstanding firms across the country.”
FAS Wealth Partners continued its growth throughout 2025. Notably, referrals from existing clients accounted for the majority of new client relationships.
As the firm has grown, FAS has remained committed to personalized financial planning, investment management, tax planning, and estate planning. At the same time, the firm continues to provide the boutique service experience that has defined FAS since its founding.
An Employee-Owned Approach to Wealth Management
In addition, FAS’s employee-owned structure supports a long-term approach to serving clients and growing the firm. Ultimately, that structure reinforces the firm’s focus on the relationships it builds with clients.
“Our employee-owned structure creates a long-term mindset that benefits both our clients and our team,” said Tom Meier, Managing Partner. “Every relationship matters, and every recommendation is made with our clients’ best interests in mind. We’re grateful for the confidence our clients continue to place in us, and this recognition reflects the exceptional people who make that possible.”
