Harbor Investment Advisory Recognized as One of Forbes’ Top 100 RIA Firms of 2024

Baltimore, MD – For the third year in a row, Harbor Investment Advisory has earned a prestigious place on Forbes’ list of America’s Top 100 Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) Firms for 2024. This recognition reflects Harbor’s exceptional experience, substantial assets under management, and impeccable compliance record, as evaluated through the rigorous SHOOK Research Methodology. The selection process spanned more than 46,000 RIAs nationwide, incorporating over 21,000 telephone interviews, 5,000 in-person interviews, and 1,500 virtual interviews to identify the industry’s top performers.

Founded to redefine client-focused investment services, Harbor Investment Advisory emerged from a vision shared by a group of advisors determined to transform the industry. This mission, born from a strategic divestiture, aimed to close gaps in the traditional investment approach by delivering a personalized, client-first experience.

Fred Hill, CEO and Managing Principal of Harbor Investment Advisory, reflected on the firm’s recognition:

“We founded Harbor to deliver something better—a client-first approach built on trust, independence, and thoughtful advice. Being named to Forbes’ Top 100 RIA Firms for the third year in a row is a powerful affirmation of that vision and a tribute to the dedication of our team. I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built and grateful for the clients who place their trust in us every day.”

Third-party rankings and recognition from ratings services are no guarantee of future investment success.
