Today the National Association of Plan Advisors launches our third annual campaign to identify the best of the next generation of advisors: NAPA’s “Young Guns.”
There are a few differences from prior campaigns. First, to be eligible for the final list, nominees must submit information about their experience, credentials, background and practice for consideration by a blue ribbon panel of judges.
Secondly, we are doing this a bit earlier than in prior years — because we plan to acknowledge those who make the final Young Guns list at this year’s NAPA 401(k) Summit, in Nashville, Tennessee April 17-19, 2016 (more information about this year’s NAPA 401(k) Summit, and a registration link, is available at www.napasummit.org).
Finally, this year we are expanding the voting element of the list; we are allowing anyone (with a business email) to vote, including colleagues, broker-dealers, DCIOs, and even plan sponsor clients. You can vote for anyone you want, and for as many individuals as you want — but only one vote per nominee.
One thing that remains unchanged — to be eligible, candidates must be under age 40 (born after Jan. 1, 1976).
The 2016 NAPA Young Guns will be published in the Spring issue of NAPA Net the Magazine, which will be distributed at the NAPA 401(k) Summit.
Ready to vote? The voting site is www.top50under40.org.
Voting will be open until 5:00 p.m. ET on Jan. 11, 2016.
Questions about the process, timing, or eligibility for this list — as well as additional nomination requests — should be directed to Nevin Adams at [email protected].
Nominees who have not received an email notification about the data request should contact [email protected] as soon as possible.
