ARLINGTON, VA (Sept. 12, 2019) – The National Association of Plan Advisors (NAPA) is pleased to announce the Top 10 Defined Contribution (DC) Wholesalers, as selected by the nation's leading retirement plan advisors.
The Top 10 DC Wholesalers in two categories – recordkeeping and DCIO (defined contribution investment only) - were drawn from the list of Top 100 DC Wholesalers, based on votes cast by several thousand advisors from a list of more than 600 wholesalers nominated by NAPA Firm Partner recordkeepers and Defined Contribution Investment Only (DCIO) providers.
“We call them “Wingmen” because if they are doing their job, they have the advisor’s back in terms of information, tools, and support,” explained Nevin Adams, Chief Content Officer at the American Retirement Association, and Editor-in-Chief of NAPA-Net, the publication that sponsors the award.
With an estimated 1400 record keeping and DCIO external wholesalers working directly with advisors, this Wingmen list represents the top 7 percent of the industry.
