Capstone Financial Advisors Named a 2025 Best RIA to Work For by Financial Planning

 

Capstone Financial Advisors is pleased to announce that the firm has been recognized as one of Financial Planning’s 2025 Best RIAs to Work For. Capstone was selected as one of 60 firms nationwide based on employer and employee surveys examining workplace culture, leadership, benefits, professional development, and overall employee experience.

“Being recognized as one of the Best RIAs to Work For by Financial Planning is especially meaningful because it reflects feedback from our employees,” said Troy E. Bute, co-founder of Capstone Financial Advisors. “At Capstone, our people are central to everything we do. We believe a supportive and engaging workplace enables our team to better serve clients and grow together as a firm.”

As the wealth management industry continues to shift toward the registered investment advisor (RIA) model, advisors are increasingly drawn to firms that offer independence, flexibility, and a client-first approach. While the RIA designation has become more common, employee experience varies widely across firms. The Best RIAs to Work For program was created to help identify firms that prioritize their people alongside their clients.

Financial Planning partnered with Best Companies Group, an independent research firm specializing in workplace evaluations, to administer the survey and recognition program. The 2025 rankings were determined using a two-part assessment. Employers provided details on workplace policies, practices, benefits, systems, and demographics, while employees completed surveys measuring leadership, communication, training, engagement, and overall satisfaction. Combined scores from both components determined the final rankings.
