Nate Hanft, CFP®, Vice President and Financial Advisor of Wealth Enhancement Group’s Hagerstown, MD Office, has been recognized in the Forbes 2023 ranking of Top Next Gen Best-In-State Wealth Advisors. 

Chief Executive Officer of Wealth Enhancement Group, Jeff Dekko, said, “I would like to congratulate Nate for his well-deserved recognition of being named among Forbes’ Top Next Gen Best-In-State Wealth Advisors. This esteemed accolade is a testament to his exceptional skills and knowledge in the industry.  We take great pride in Nate’s achievement, and we are honored to have him on board.” 

Since its inception in 2017, this prestigious list aims to acknowledge exceptional financial advisors, particularly those who are considered up-and-coming professionals, also known as the Next-Gen, and are under the age of 40. Having weathered various market cycles, these advisors possess extensive experience and maintain strong relationships with their clients, often representing multiple generations. As a result, they are recognized as some of the most accomplished professionals in the field of wealth management. 

Nate is ranked #36 in Maryland, and he is one of three advisors from Wealth Enhancement Group who have been named to the Forbes 2023 Top Next Gen Best-In-State Wealth Advisor ranking. 

About the Selection Process 

The Forbes Next-Gen Wealth Advisors rankings, developed by SHOOK Research, are based on an algorithm of qualitative criterion—mostly gained through telephone, virtual, and in-person due diligence interviews—and quantitative data. Those advisors that are considered have a minimum of four years' experience, and the algorithm weighs factors like revenue trends, assets under management, compliance records, industry experience and those that encompass the highest standards of best practices. Portfolio performance is not a criterion due to varying client objectives and lack of audited data. Neither Forbes nor SHOOK receive a fee in exchange for rankings.
