Madison, WI (February 11, 2009) – Savant Capital Management, a fee-only wealth advisory firm headquartered in Rockford, Ill., and with offices in Madison and other areas of Northern Illinois, was honored this month to be featured on the cover of Investment Advisor magazine, a national publication that goes out to over 100,000 registered investment advisors.

In the featured article, Savant’s Managing Director Tom Muldowney advises other financial advisors on how to become an employer of choice by “treating employees like clients.” Muldowney says that he and his partners realized that the key to success in the investment advisory business is not the investment, but the advisor. With that in mind, they set out to make Savant a place where advisors would want to practice their profession.

“A key to attracting talent in any company is to allow the employee to do what he or she does best. At Savant we use a team approach to encourage all of our employees, including our advisors, to focus on their unique abilities. The primary reason for any advisor to join us is that it gives them the opportunity to be an advisor, instead of having to be a lawyer or a taxman or an investment portfolio researcher,” said Muldowney.

Savant was featured among other prestigious advisors from firms such as Aspiriant, Legend Financial Advisors, Pillar Pacific Capital Management and Friedman & Associates.
