Conrad Siegel Among Nation’s Top DC Advisor Teams in 2022

Conrad Siegel was named to the National Association of Plan Advisors’ (NAPA’s) list of the nation’s top defined contribution (DC) Advisor Teams on March 17th, 2023. Conrad Siegel’s DC operations are based out of its headquarters in Harrisburg, PA. The firm made the list because of the $6+ billion in assets that it manages (as of 6/30/2022).

Unlike other lists, this focuses on individual firms, or what may, in a wirehouse environment, be referred to as a team, or office, and the assets under advisement related to their defined contribution (DC) practice, specifically in a single physical location. The inaugural list was published in 2017.

“Since their inception, NAPA’s various industry lists have been a valuable Who’s Who of who matters in the world of retirement plans and retirement plan advisors,” noted Nevin Adams, Chief Content Officer of the American Retirement Association, and Editor-in-Chief of NAPA-Net, the nation’s leading online resource for retirement plan advisors. “This latest chapter – the NAPA Top DC Advisor Teams, ranked by self-reported DC assets under advisement – presents a compelling case for the positive impact on the nation’s private retirement system”.

Despite the market turmoil in 2022, the record number (362) of teams on this year’s list continue to guide nearly $2 trillion in defined contribution plan assets belonging to more than 56,000 plans covering more than 23 million participants.

Third-party rankings and recognition from rating services or publications are no guarantee of future investment success. Working with a highly rated advisor does not ensure that a client or prospective client will experience a higher level of performance or results. These ratings should not be construed as an endorsement of the advisor or by any client nor are they representative of any one client’s evaluation. Generally, ratings, rankings and recognition are based on information prepared and submitted by the advisor. Unless otherwise noted no fee was paid for consideration of any ranking or award. A more thorough disclosure of the criteria used in making these rankings is attached or is available below.

Established in 2017, nominees had to be individual advisor team/offices with a defined contribution book of business, in a single physical location. To be considered, firms had to submit responses to an application form, including information about their practices, notably their defined contribution (DC) assets under advisement. The list is created and conducted by the National Association of Plan Advisors, an affiliate organization of the American Retirement Association, a non-profit association. No fee is charged to participate.
