Pathstone is pleased to announce that Justine DeCoste, Director of Investment Research, and Hannah Kanstroom, Director of Family Advisory, have been named finalists in the Rising Star Under 40 category of the Twelfth Annual Family Wealth Report Awards.  

The annual Family Wealth Report Awards program recognizes the “most innovative and exceptional firms, teams and individuals serving the family office, family wealth and trusted advisor communities in North America.” Winners will be announced on May 8, 2025 at the Gala Ceremony at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Manhattan, New York.  

Third-party rankings and recognition from ratings services are no guarantee of future investment success. Working with a highly rated adviser does not ensure that a client or prospective client will experience a higher level of performance or results. Ratings should not be considered an endorsement for the adviser by any client, nor are they representative of any one client’s evaluation. Pathstone paid no application fee to participate. 

Methodology:
The Family Wealth Report Awards 2025 pool of judges consists of experts coming from family offices, private banks, trusted advisers, consultants and other service providers each of whom has in-depth wealth management knowledge and experience. The judging process is organized in a way so as to avoid conflicts of interest. No judge will be asked to review a submission from an organization competitive to their own. There are two rounds of judging to decide the shortlist first and then a final meeting to decide the ultimate winner. The judges are asked to explain why they feel the particular firm they have chosen should win, and it then goes to vote. The award ranking provided is accurate as of March 14, 2025 and is based on the data as of December 31, 2024.
