Methodology
Figures are computed from the official SEC Investment Adviser firm roster (FOIA download, report date July 1, 2026), deduplicated by CRD number (zero duplicates found). “Regulatory AUM” is Form ADV Item 5.F.(2)(c) – total regulatory assets under management; 615 firms reporting $0 RAUM are excluded from AUM statistics. State assignment uses each firm’s main-office address; SEC-registered firms only (state-registered advisers are not included). Every figure was independently recomputed by a second automated reviewer before publication. Full details: how Clear Money Guide computes its numbers.
