NEW YORK, Sept. 23, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Steward Partners Investment Advisory, LLC, a registered investment advisor owned by Steward Partners has been named to Barron's 2022 annual ranking of independent registered investment advisor (RIA) firms.

"Steward Partners has continued to enjoy year-over-year growth since we launched the firm nine years ago and that has continued throughout the pandemic and the related economic turmoil. We're proud our investment advisory arm was recognized by Barron's, not only for our growth in assets and revenue, but for our culture," said Jim Gold, CEO of Steward Partners Global Advisory.

Going forward, we will continue developing our platform by providing our partners with the best technology, investment solutions, and other resources so they can focus their attention on serving their clients."
