Kayne Anderson Rudnick announced today that it is has been named as one of InvestmentNews’ 5-Star Wealth Management Teams for 2025, a recognition that acknowledges top wealth management firms that have excelled in growing and retaining clients.
“We’re pleased to be recognized among the nation’s top wealth management teams. Our advisors play a key role in delivering thoughtful guidance and solutions that distinguish our firm. Their knowledge and professionalism have shaped the experience and results our clients have come to expect over the years,” said Stephen A. Rigali, Executive Managing Director.
The 5-Star Wealth Management Teams list was designed to spotlight advisory teams that have made a measurable impact on their clients and the broader financial services industry. InvestmentNews evaluated nominees based on several core criteria: meaningful contributions to clients and the financial industry, deep understanding of client needs, notable achievements over the past 12 months, and standout performance measured by assets under management and overall team results.
Nominees were reviewed for the significance of the difference they have made—both in terms of outcomes delivered to clients and their broader role as leaders within the industry.
“This recognition speaks to the strength of our collaborative culture and the deep trust our clients place in us,” added Rigali. “We’re proud to be included in a group that reflects the highest standards of excellence in wealth management.”
