    According to http://www.fivestarprofessional.com, The FIVE STAR Award is awarded by Crescendo Business Services and surveyed by QMI Research, an independent third party, which helps assist consumers in selecting wealth managers based on nine criteria: customer service, integrity, knowledge/expertise, communication, value for fee charged, meeting of financial objectives, post-sale services, quality of recommendations and overall satisfaction. The survey, conducted by phone and mail, is sent to over 140,000 high net-worth households in Connecticut with an additional 3,700 surveys going to financial services industry professionals who evaluate wealth managers based on three additional criteria: integrity, knowledge/expertise, overall reputation. Each wealth manager is then reviewed for any regulatory actions, civil judicial actions and customer complaints as reported by FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) and other regulatory agencies. Finally, it is reviewed by a blue ribbon panel comprised of knowledgeable individuals from within the financial services industry.
