By honoring these award winners for operational excellence and embracing new technology, we're highlighting how important it is for financial advisors to incorporate digital tools into their practices as a way to strengthen their own client-obsessed culture and stay competitive."

The 2023 Practice Excellence Awards are issued by AssetMark and recognize financial advisory firms for embracing new technology to perform traditionally manual middle- and back-office functions.
