EP Wealth Advisors was founded by Derek Holman and Brian Parker, who have been best friends since sixth grade. Their journey began when they worked together at a frozen yogurt shop in San Diego before becoming successful financial advisors. Dissatisfied with an industry that seemed profit-driven rather than people-focused, Derek and Brian joined forces in 1999 to establish Premier Financial Management, which later evolved into EP Wealth Advisors.
Their independent fiduciary model emphasizes unbiased advice and personalized approaches to wealth management — an approach that resonated with investors seeking transparent and conflict-free services. The firm's commitment to providing access to comprehensive planning and investment solutions typically reserved for wealthy families has fueled its growth. Today, EP Wealth Advisors stands as one of the largest financial planning and investment advisory firms in the country. Its success can be attributed to a team of collaborative professionals dedicated to excellence in their work.
