At First American Bank, we’re big enough to do it all – small enough to care.
Get To Know UsFirst American Bank is committed to you
First American Bank believes that each client is unique. Your personal values, family dynamics, lifetime goals and resources must be considered when developing financial strategies to help attain your vision. Our mission is to help improve the overall quality of your life by creating and implementing a plan that promotes financial security. Knowledge is key in this process. We help you understand what will be required to attain financial goals and which investment and other financial strategies will most likely achieve the results you desire.
We work with you on all aspects of your wealth management plan. We have excellent in-house expertise in financial planning, investment management, estate planning, trust administration, banking, and credit. Our Client Advisors most often act as the primary advisor for you and your family and work directly with your attorneys, accountants and other service providers. Because we develop long-term relationships, our approach evolves as you move from the stages of wealth accumulation to preservation and then to distribution.
We pledge to provide service that is second to none. As a fiduciary, we are legally required to act in your best interest. Your interests are placed ahead of ours and always come first. Our recommendations are based on what makes financial sense for you and are not based on product offerings that compensate us for their use. We maintain custody of all assets and control over the process at all times. We continually monitor and evaluate results to assure that your goal is always in sight. Changes are made as necessary based on a disciplined process that eliminates any emotional ties to specific assets or managers.
