Wealth Management

At First Bank Wealth Management we help grow and preserve your wealth, pass your business on to a beneficiary, transfer assets to children and grandchildren or supporting the charity of your choice.  We simplify complex wealth management needs with holistic and objective advice and solutions.  Through our structured, planned approach we will guide and serve you through each phase of the wealth cycle.  As a full-service wealth management group, we have been serving clients since 1967 in Missouri, Illinois and California.  We support small and middle market businesses, individuals, families, pensions, trusts, foundations and non-profit organizations.  Lastly, we adhere to the Fiduciary Standard – the highest standard in investment management.  This requires our advisors to put our client’s interests above their own.

We provide proactive, holistic advice and solutions without product or firm bias, through a planning-based approach, delivered by a highly-credentialed advisory team. We advise and service our clients through each phase of the wealth cycle:

• Create and Grow Wealth - through a broad range of investments and specialized capabilities, guided by a unique, client-specific financial plan
• Protect and Preserve Wealth - with comprehensive asset protection, retirement, tax planning and risk strategies
• Transition Wealth - through expert estate planning and estate settlement service
