Financial and Investment Analysts salary in Hartford, Connecticut

About 1,860 Financial and Investment Analysts worked in the Hartford metro in 2024, making this one of the more substantial concentrations of the occupation in New England. The median annual wage was $99,830, which runs about 6% below the Connecticut statewide median of $106,250 and roughly 1% below the national figure of $101,220. For a state with Hartford's long history in insurance and financial services, the gap against the state median is worth noting: Fairfield County pulls that statewide number up considerably, and Hartford sits in a different part of the market.

The spread within the metro is wide. Analysts at the 10th percentile earned $66,750 in 2024, while those at the 90th earned $140,120. Top earners make about twice what those starting out do. The 25th-to-75th-percentile range runs from $79,820 to $120,940, so the middle of the distribution spans roughly $41,000. That kind of spread usually reflects real differences in seniority, specialty, and the type of firm, from entry-level positions at regional insurers to senior roles at asset managers.

The mean wage of $103,620 sits modestly above the median, which tells us the high earners at the top are pulling the average up, but not dramatically so. The distribution here is more compressed than what we see in metros where a small group of very senior professionals dominates the figures.
