Advisor Today's
4 Under 40

Recognizing Accelerated Career Excellence

 

Each year, Advisor Today magazine recognizes four financial advisors who achieve excellence in their profession by or before the age of 40 with Advisor Today’s 4 Under 40 Award.
 
Someone you know is a leader. He or she is successful, of course, but also committed to their community, family, and team. They’re already a great example for their peers. Nominate them for Advisor Today’s 4 Under 40 Award. It’s the recognition they deserve and the next step in their amazing career.

Past winners have a proven track record of continued success through industry leadership roles, speaking engagements, and increased peer recognition.

How to Nominate
You do not have to be a member to nominate a potential candidate for Advisor Today’s 4 Under 40 Award, nor do you have to be a member to submit your own application. However, recipients must be a NAIFA member at the time of the application deadline and award recognition. 
 
Awards are closed for 2024 and will be given out at Apex/National Leadership Conference in Arizona September 19-21, 2024.
