How this list is built

The number

Regulatory assets under management as disclosed on Form ADV, filed with the SEC. Each filing is public.

Where a firm sits

Firms are placed by the strategy they are principally known for. A manager filing several entities appears once, at its largest.

What is excluded

Banks, brokerages, index managers and wealth advisers. Their assets are a different measure and ranking them beside a fund’s regulatory assets would be meaningless.

Links

Every website is checked as the firm’s own site before publication. Where we cannot confirm one, we print no link rather than a guess.
