COLUMBUS, Ohio, August 14, 2009 – Columbus-based investment management and financial advisory firm, Hamilton Capital Manage-ment, Inc., has been named one of the nation’s top 100 firms by Finan-cial Advisor magazine.
The ranking is based on the maga-zine’s 2009 RIA Survey, which gathers data from independent fi-nancial advisors across the country and ranks participating firms by total assets under manage-ment. Hamilton Capital ranked 85th on the list, which appears in the July 2009 issue of the magazine. The firm also was recently named to Wealth Manager magazine’s 2009 Top Wealth Managers list – another ranking of the nation’s top wealth advisors – for the eighth year in a row.
“It’s an honor to be ranked among the country’s top independent firms, because independence and objectiv-ity are two things we and our clients
value so highly,” said Hamilton Capi-tal Chairman and CEO R. Matthew Hamilton. “We believe our Financial Advisor and Wealth Manager rank-ings are a testament to the expertise of our team and the trust our clients have placed in us to help them achieve their goals with sound, inde-pendent financial advice.” About Hamilton Capital Man-agement Hamilton Capital Management is one of central Ohio’s largest inde-pendent, fee-only investment man-agement and financial advisory firms.
