Torrance, CA, April 19, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Moran, Kimura & Heising is proud to announce that Rich Moran, CFP® was listed in Los Angeles Magazine’s 2011 FIVE STAR: Best in Client Satisfaction Wealth Manager listing. Mr. Moran is a Partner in Moran, Kimura & Heising, with offices in Torrance and Rolling Hills Estates.

The list of 2011 Wealth Managers represents two percent of the wealth managers in the Los Angeles area, according to Los Angeles Magazine. Los Angeles Magazine formed a partnership with Crescendo Business Services to find which wealth managers scored highest in overall satisfaction.

Crescendo administered a survey, by mail and phone, to approximately one in four high-net-worth households (113,000 households), which they defined as the upper one-third of all households based on net-worth, over 16,300 financial services professionals within the Los Angeles area. Recipients were asked to evaluate only wealth managers whom they know through personal experience and to evaluate them based upon nine criteria: customer service, integrity, knowledge/expertise, communication, value for fee charged, meeting of financial objectives, post-sale service, quality of recommendations, and overall satisfaction.
