FAIRFAX, Va., Oct. 30 — Edelman Financial Services, one of the largest independent financial advisory firms in the country based on number of clients served, today announced the opening of an office to serve those who live and work in Alexandria.
The new office is located at 1800 Diagonal Road, directly across the street from the Alexandria Metro Station. It opens for business on Thursday, Nov. 1.
"We're excited about providing more convenient service to our clients in the Alexandria area," said EFS founder and chairman Ric Edelman. "We were overwhelmed with requests to establish another ‘local' address in Northern Virginia." EFS is headquartered in Fairfax, Va., and also operates an office in Bethesda, Md. The firm, with 130 employees, was recently named – for the third consecutive time – as one of the Washington metropolitan region's "Great Places to Work" by Washingtonian magazine.
With nearly 8,000 clients and $3.5 billion in assets under management, EFS serves more individuals and families than any other independent investment management firm in the nation, according to Wealth Manager magazine.
Ric Edelman this year was rated as the No. 2 independent financial advisor in the county, in a ranking compiled by Barron's. Edelman has been providing financial advice to consumers for more than 20 years. He hosts The Ric Edelman Show, syndicated nationally on the ABC Radio Networks, and is the author of six books, including his just-released instant bestseller The Lies About Money (Simon & Schuster), available in bookstores everywhere.
