Williamsport, PA – March 14, 2018 – The Barron’s Magazine issued March 10, 2018, announced its 2018 Top 1200 Financial Advisors list ranking Barbara B. Hudock, CEO and Founding Partner of Hudock Capital Group, as one of the Top 50 Financial Advisors in Pennsylvania.  This is the ninth year Hudock has been included on this list as one of the most successful financial advisors in the U.S.  This year’s list ranks Hudock as the second highest ranked woman financial advisor in Pennsylvania.

Published by Dow Jones & Company since 1921, Barron’s covers U.S. financial information, market developments and relevant statistics.  The publication releases this list annually to recognize leading financial advisors within the industry on the basis of the volume of assets under management by the advisor and his or her team, revenues produced for the advisor’s firm, the advisor’s regulatory record, the advisor’s quality of practice, and the advisor’s and his or her firm’s philanthropic work.

Hudock, who holds both the Certified Investment Management Analyst (CIMA) and Certified Portfolio Manager (CPM) professional designations, recently marked 43 years of experience in the wealth management industry.

“I am deeply humbled to be included again among our nation’s top financial advisors,” said Hudock, “and I am proud to share this profound honor with our entire team of experienced professionals who devote themselves to making a positive and profound difference in the lives of our clients and the communities we serve. It is our privilege to help our clients realize their financial goals through dynamic, tailored planning and investment strategies that are firmly grounded in a deep sense of purpose.”

In addition to personally focusing on the needs of high-net-worth individuals and families, Hudock’s philosophy of strategic philanthropic community support is a core value of the firm.  Embraced by the entire team and reflecting the same philosophy of the majority of the firm’s clients, Hudock and her team consistently support a variety of arts, health and education non-profit organizations throughout the region. In recognition of this passion for philanthropy, the Hudock family received the Lifetime Philanthropist Award from the Susquehanna Health Foundation at the Lifetime Achievement Awards ceremony in May 2017. In addition, Barbara and her family were presented with the Philanthropist of the Year Award by the Central PA Chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals in October 2017.
