Bellevue-based Merrill Lynch advisor, Phil Scott, was recognized on “America’s Top 100 Financial Advisors” list in the April 19 issue of Barron’s magazine.

Scott is Managing Director – Investments and a Private Wealth Advisor with the Private Banking and Investment Group at Merrill Lynch in Bellevue.

The Top 100 Advisors ranking reflects the volume of assets overseen by the advisors and their teams, revenues generated for the firms and the quality of the advisors’ practices.

Scott’s Top 100 honor follows his previous recognition by Barron’s on its “America’s Top 1,000 Advisors: State-by-State” list, which published in the Feb. 22, 2010 issue of the magazine, and for which he was ranked the No. 1 advisor in the state of Washington.
