§On April 28, 2025, T. Rowe Price was named as one of the best financial advisory firms of 2025. The ranking of the best registered investment advisory firms (RIA Firms) was determined using a methodology that considered recommendations by clients, industry experts, and financial advisors, as well as the development of assets under management (AUM). Recommendations were gathered through an independent survey of over 30,000 individuals, with self-recommendations prohibited. AUM development was analyzed using publicly available data, with short-term development assessed over a 12-month period from January 2024 to January 2025, and long-term development over a five-year period from 2020 to 2025. The final score was calculated by weighting recommendations at 20% and AUM development at 80%, with a 30/70 ratio for short-term and long-term AUM growth. The data used for the analysis was collected up to January 2025. The award was presented by USA Today and Statista Inc., a leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider that tabulated the rating. T.
