Affiliated Advisors Wins InvestmentNews First "Ascension Award"

Innovative advisor service and support platform recognized for business excellence and diversity, with women representing over 90% of the firm

NEW YORK, Nov. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Affiliated Advisors, a leading advisor service and support platform, announced today that the firm has been recognized by InvestmentNews, as the first winner of its new "Ascension Award" for business excellence and diversity.

The Ascension Award honors firms with at least 30-50% of women in the C-suite, along with a significant proportion of women in the company and in leadership positions. With women representing over 90% of the team and 2/3rds of the managing partners, Affiliated Advisors stands out in a historically male-dominated industry that is increasingly looking to broaden diversity.

"We are very honored and excited to win this prestigious award," said Rita Robbins, Founder and President of Affiliated Advisors. "We take great pride in our diversity which is inspiring our advisor clients to build the practices of their dreams, with a focus on inclusion and meeting the unique needs of women financial advisors and their female clients."

Every year InvestmentNews honors women industry innovators who are leaders in their firms, the industry, and their communities. These women have advanced the business of providing financial advice through their leadership, passion, creativity and willingness to help others along the way. Rita was honored in 2017 as an InvestmentNews' "Women to Watch" honoree.

"I'd like to thank InvestmentNews for developing these inspirational awards designed to highlight the meaningful work that women leaders are doing to support a more diverse and vibrant industry," Robbins said. "These awards help to drive awareness and thus change; and we are very honored to be recognized as one of the industry's leading platforms for women advisors."
