There are 100,000 independent financial advisors in the United States. The Investopedia 100 spotlights the country’s most engaged, influential, and educational advisors. In 2023, Peter Lazaroff was awarded the #4 spot.
All winners awarded a spot on the list make significant contributions to critical conversations about financial literacy, investing strategies, life-stage planning, and wealth management.
This year’s list also highlights advisors who provide unique value to communities across the board, from those who represent clients in various industries—from music to dentistry—advisors who offer pro bono financial planning tips for women, to those who volunteer to educate students within their own community.
What Peter has to say about winning a top spot with Investopedia:
It’s an incredible honor to be recognized alongside such a great group of advisors, all of whom are making important contributions to making financial advice more accessible.
This is not the first time Peter has been named a top advisor for Investopedia.
He was also recognized in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. He continues to be consistent with his goal to educate and inform investors all around the country.
Peter has also received awards for:
- Five Star Wealth Manager (2013-2023)
- Barron’s Top 100 RIA Firms (2022)
- CNBC Top Advisor (2021)
Peter plans to continue his contribution to financial education through articles on his website, PeterLazaroff.com, his podcast The Long Term Investor, and numerous interviews on podcasts, speaking and national television.
My goal for the future is to help even more people. I will obviously continue to write, but I’ll also continue producing a podcast for those find audio more convenient and easier to consume. I’m also looking forward to continuing to speak as well as be an informed source for national media.

Investopedia’s proprietary methodology focuses on awarding financial advisors who have demonstrated a top-of-the-industry ability to reach the largest and most relevant financial and investing audience, as measured by the impact and quality of their published work, public appearances, and online following. The Investopedia 100 also heavily weighs peer-to-peer nominations, highlighting the most influential advisors who were recommended by their peers. Investopedia receives no compensation from placing advisors on the list, nor does an advisor’s appearance on the list constitute an individual endorsement by Investopedia of such advisor.
