A bank for entrepreneurs, pioneers and go-getters.


First Western started in 1910 in Booneville, Arkansas.

In the 100+ years since then, bold entrepreneurs with smart ideas have turned our formerly small communities into big business. We serve Western and Northwestern Arkansas and beyond and have expanded our financial services to better help you manage your finances, protect your family, and grow your wealth. Yet, the most important things haven’t changed: the way we treat people and the way we treat each other. We call it “The First Western Way.”
 

Why do people choose First Western? 

We’re known for delivering exceptional financial services in a welcoming, community-focused atmosphere. In a world where banks seem to be on every corner, we stand apart by offering a complete financial experience—banking, mortgage, insurance, and investment solutions—all under one roof.

Banking with First Western means more than managing your money. It’s a show of support for your hometown. As an employee-owned, independent bank, your dollars stay local, fueling the community you live and work in.

The First Western Way

The First Western Way is how we’ve always approached our business – with the service and personal attention that consistently leads to delighted customers and long-term banking relationships. 

It’s listening more than you talk and treating people fairly. It’s saying no to doubters and yes to dreamers. It’s faith-based and family first. It’s climbing higher than you’ve ever been and going further than you thought you could. It’s not always the easy way, but for us, it’s the only way.

 

 

 

Core Values:

A Christian work attitude and a reputation of integrity, honesty and professionalism.


A cooperative team spirit and a working environment which focuses on producing superior organizational performance.


Maintain a leadership role in the communities we serve.
