EPOCH ANNOUNCES 22% INCREASE IN ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE) - April 4, 2007 -- Epoch Investment Partners, Inc.
("Epoch" or the "Company"), a leading investment manager and investment adviser
and the operating subsidiary of Epoch Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: EPHC), today
announced that its assets under management ("AUM") increased 22 percent, or $970
million, to $5.38 billion as of March 31, 2007 from $4.41 billion as of December
31, 2006.

"We believe our significant growth in assets under management this quarter
reflects the growing acceptance among investors of our free cash flow investment
approach as the appropriate methodology for valuing companies in today's
investment environment," said William W. Priest, Chief Executive Officer of the
Company. "We saw significant cash flows into our Global Equity Shareholder Yield
strategy which is a direct application of finding global companies whose
managements are committed to returning their free cash flow to shareholders in
the form of high dividends, stock repurchases and debt reductions."

"We received additional institutional mandates this quarter and we're also
pleased to have announced two new significant sub-advisory relationships," added
Priest. "Skandia Global Funds launched an offshore fund using our U.S. Large Cap
Value service and John Hancock Funds launched an open-ended retail mutual fund
employing our Global Equity Shareholder Yield service which they will distribute
on an exclusive basis to the retail investment community."

Priest concluded, "Also during the quarter, we continued our commitment to
growing our professional staff by adding three talented and experienced
investment professionals including: Janet Navon, Managing Director, Portfolio
Management and Senior Analyst; Kenneth Hightower, Director, Quantitative
Research and Risk Management; and Dina DiCenso, Senior Associate and Analyst."
