Two UBS Advisors from Houston Named to Forbes/SHOOK List of Top Next-Gen Wealth Advisors

HOUSTON, July 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- UBS announced today that two financial advisors from Houston have been named to the 2020 Forbes/SHOOK list of Top Next-Gen Wealth Advisors. Those are Mark Kaye and Charles Litton. Kaye represents the Downtown Houston branch, while Litton represents River Oaks.

The nomination criteria require nominees to be any of the three following types of practitioners: advisors who build and lead their own teams, advisors who advise a team of specialists, or advisors who are a hybrid of the two aforementioned models. Winners were selected based on thoughtful data provided by SHOOK, Forbes' research partner, as well as in-person interviews, revenue produced, and industry experience. The list showcases the 250 rising financial advisors from across the U.S., ranked amongst other leading advisors in the same market.

"These individuals have proved themselves as the future of wealth advising and represent the best of UBS," says Craig Vandegrift, Managing Director and South Texas-Market Head at UBS. "We are grateful for the expertise and hard work that these advisors and their teams bring to the firm, and congratulate them for their impressive achievements."
