The 5 Wisest Advisors

The jury evaluated each of the 20 entries independently, and scored each one on all 4 parameters, to ensure objectivity and consistency. Each of the jury members spent several hours over a weekend to evaluate 20 high quality comprehensive entries. We are grateful to the jury for their time and effort.

The scoring sheets of all 3 jury members were collated by Wealth Forum, and discussions around normalization of scores were conducted with the jury members to ensure that all are comfortable with the collective results.
