”My dream in 1974 was to create a firm that would offer financial planning/investment services to our clients in a personal, caring, and thoughtful way. Today, Professional Planning Group is highly regarded as one of the top wealth management firms in the country. We specialize in fee-only wealth management for individuals and families who are retired or preparing for retirement. We work with Foundations, Endowments and other charitable organizations. Our approach is holistic, personal and measurable. Our staff is mature, qualified and experienced. In addition to myself, Kathy Nealon, CPA and three of my sons, Christopher Wallace, CFA®, Daniel Makin, CFP® and Peter Wallace bring more than 75 years of combined experience in financial services to PPG. We truly make a difference.”

Five Star Professional, as a third party research firm, identified pre-qualified award candidates based on industry data and contacted all identified broker dealers, Registered Investment Advisor firms and FINRA-registered representatives in the Rhode Island area (includes Bristol, Kent, Newport, Providence and Washington counties in the state of Rhode Island, and Bristol county in the state of Massachusetts) to gather wealth manager nominations. Self nominations were not accepted.
Award candidates were then evaluated against 10 objective eligibility and evaluation criteria associated with wealth managers who provide quality services to their clients such as client retention rates, client assets administered, firm review and a favorable regulatory and complaint history. Five Star Professional finalized the list of 2012 Five Star Wealth Managers to be no more than 7% of the approximately 4,700 wealth managers in the area. 287 award candidates in the Rhode Island area were considered for the award, of which 111 were named 2012 Five Star Wealth Managers.
• Wealth managers do not pay a fee to be considered or placed on the final list of Five Star Wealth Managers.
• The Five Star award is not indicative of the wealth manager's future performance.
• Wealth managers may or may not use discretion in their practice and therefore may not manage their client's assets.
• The inclusion of a wealth manager on the Five Star Wealth Manager list should not be construed as an endorsement of the wealth manager by Five Star Professional or Rhode Island Monthly.
• Working with a Five Star Wealth Manager or any wealth manager is no guarantee as to future investment success, nor is there any guarantee that the selected wealth managers will be awarded this accomplishment by Five Star Professional in the future.
