The Collica Group is honored to announce that Anthony M. Collica, CFP®, ChFC®, BFA® has been named a 2026 Five Star Wealth Manager, the second consecutive year he has received this distinction. This recognition is a reflection of the client-first philosophy and professional standards that have guided The Collica Group since its founding.

About the Five Star Wealth Manager Award

The Five Star Wealth Manager Award is one of the most widely recognized honors in the financial services industry. Administered by Crescendo Business Services LLC, the award is based entirely on independent research, candidates are neither self-nominated nor required to pay a fee for consideration.

Each year, wealth managers are evaluated across ten criteria, including client retention rates, regulatory history, professional credentials, and the breadth of households served. In 2026, the award was granted to fewer than 7% of the 3,902 wealth managers evaluated in the Detroit area, underscoring the selectivity of the process.

The Criteria Behind the Recognition

To be considered, award candidates must meet rigorous standards across the following:

• Active credentialing as an investment advisory representative or registered investment advisor

• A minimum of five years of experience in the financial services industry

• A favorable regulatory and complaint history

• Compliance with internal firm review standards

• Actively accepting new clients

• Strong one-year and five-year client retention rates

• Non-institutional client assets administered

• Number of client households served

• Educational and professional designations

Anthony holds the CFP® (Certified Financial Planner), ChFC® (Chartered Financial Consultant), and BFA® (Behavioral Financial Advisor) designations. This combination reflects both the technical depth and the behavioral awareness required to guide clients through complex financial decisions with confidence and clarity.

A Commitment That Compounds

"Receiving this recognition for the second year in a row is humbling," Anthony shared. "It is a reminder that the work we do for our clients every day,  the planning, the communication, the careful attention to their goals, matters. That consistency is what I am most proud of."

At The Collica Group, excellence is not measured in a single moment. It is built through sustained attention to each client's evolving needs, proactive communication, and a long-term perspective that prioritizes lasting outcomes over short-term decisions.
