Frank Deptola Awarded Five Star Wealth Manager Recognition for 9th Straight Year

Outstanding Achievement Exemplifies "The Deptola Difference"

ANAHEIM, CA (December 20, 2022) Financial Advisor Frank Deptola with Frank Deptola & Associates, LLC, has been recognized as a 2023 Five Star Wealth Manager in Orange County by Five Star Professional. In addition to his role as a Wealth Manager, Deptola is also the founder and President of Frank Deptola & Associates, LLC, a fee-based fiduciary firm headquartered in Anaheim, California.

This 2023 Five Star honor marks Frank Deptola's ninth consecutive year of recognition. "This is a very unusual occurrence, and Frank is in rare company," says Chrissy Mattson of Five Star. "Perhaps 15 people have won this award nine consecutive times in Orange County." 

Deptola has completed 36 graduate courses, earning over 100 graduate credit hours in taxation, finance, accounting, and business from nationally ranked programs. Frank possesses an M.B.A. degree from the University of Southern California's Marshall School of Business, and an M.S. Taxation degree from the Mihaylo Graduate School of Business, at Cal State Fullerton.

Data shows that while Five Star considered 3,629 financial advisors, just 155 of those candidates are projected to receive the honor nationwide. Frank Deptola views this standout performance as a hallmark of the Deptola Difference. "At Frank Deptola & Associates, we exceed industry standards because we strive to make our practice the benchmark against which all other firms are measured. We believe that in chasing perfection, we move toward a higher standard of excellence, and our clients benefit from this philosophy every day."

As in years past, this award will be featured in upcoming editions of both the Wall Street Journal and Fortune magazine, as well as Orange Coast magazine. For more information on Frank Deptola & Associates, please visit www.deptola.com.
