Chief Executive Officer

Banc of California, Inc.

President or CEO: Midsize Company

Jared M. Wolff is the vice chairman, chief executive officer and president of Banc of California, Inc., the largest independent bank headquartered in Los Angeles with $33 billion in assets. Since orchestrating the 2023 transformational merger with PacWest Bancorp and a concurrent $400 million equity raise, he has steered the combined institution through the rapid conversion of nearly 20,000 clients and 55,000 accounts to a single platform while launching deposit-growth incentives that fortified liquidity. Drawing on earlier experience overseeing more than 20 acquisitions at Pacific Western Bank, Wolff has repositioned the balance sheet for low-cost funding and set targets for accelerated loan expansion in 2025. Beyond financial performance, he leverages the bank’s scale for community resilience, seeding a $1 million Wildfire Relief & Recovery Fund that has already delivered six-figure support to Red Cross efforts and the rebuild of a Pacific Palisades playground. This combination of strategic integration and targeted philanthropy underscores his commitment to creating durable value for shareholders and Southern California alike.
