In 2002, Scott Wylie, an entrepreneur and banker, led a group of Western business leaders to create an organization that provides individuals with high levels of sophistication and personalized boutique service. We opened our doors in March of 2004 as the first Western-based private bank – First Western Trust.
By building a team with deep knowledge in relationship banking as well as expertise in sophisticated investment management, they created an institution that provides Western clients with integrated wealth management solutions on a private banking and trust platform, along with our proprietary ConnectView® approach.
Their vision has led us to where we are today, with the goal of building the best private bank for the Western wealth management client for generations to come.
