David W. Ellis III Named to Forbes List of 2020 Top In-State Wealth Advisors

UBS

CINCINNATI

Honor recognizes an exceptional career in financial services for the fifth straight year

UBS Financial Services Inc. announced David W. Ellis III, private wealth advisor and managing director of UBS Financial Services Inc., has been named a Top In-State Wealth Advisor by Forbes for the fifth year in a row.

With more than 30 years of experience in the financial services industry, David and his team provide asset management and wealth management services for individuals, families and organizations. The Ellis Group strives to be an advocate for clients by utilizing a collaborative process-driven investment management and financial planning approach. The team currently oversees more than $1.8 billion in client assets.

“I am honored to be named among the leading financial advisors by Forbes, but I would not have received this recognition without the hard work of my entire team,” said Ellis. “Successful families, entrepreneurs and executives choose our team to oversee their finances. We are diligent and focused private wealth advisors who care about what matters to our clients and we are grateful Forbes recognized this effort.”

This Forbes ranking includes SHOOK research with the basic requirements of seven years as an advisor, a minimum of one year at the current firm (with exceptions of acquisitions, etc.), being nominated by their firm, completing the online survey, obtaining over 50% of their firm’s revenue and an acceptable compliance record. In addition, there are several quantitative and qualitative requirements investigated such as client related data, advisors providing a full client experience, in-person meetings with the advisors, community involvement and team dynamics among others.

The ranking algorithm is designed to fairly compare business practices of many advisors. The weighing of the data is done to ensure priorities are given to dynamics such as preferred best practices, business models, recent business activity, etc. Each variable is graded and represents a certain value for each measured component. These data are fed into an algorithm that measures thousands of advisors against each other.

Forbes Best-in-State Wealth Advisors list is comprised of approximately 2,200 financial advisors.

Neither UBS Financial Services Inc. or its employees pay a fee in exchange for these ratings. Past performance is not an indication of future results.
