First Washington is a place that clients have come to trust. Our history, culture, commitment and leadership position us perfectly to succeed in a variety of complex market conditions.
Founded in the Pacific Northwest over 70 years ago, our Company has been built with an optimistic view toward the future. First Washington has always believed that what's good for our clients is good for our firm. Seattle has been the birthplace of an extraordinary number of innovative, world class companies. Starting with timber, airplanes, trucks, and specialty retail and followed, in more recent decades, with software, telecommunications, e-commerce, biotechnology and branded consumer products, Seattle has a rich history of changing how the world does business. First Washington aspires to set the same high standards of achievement in the investment business!
First Washington advises our clients and manages their assets in the publicly traded markets. We do this in two ways: through our traditional brokerage operations or in our SEC Registered Investment Advisory.
We are a long way from Wall Street… in many ways. We know that we have built a firm with enduring values, distinctive investment expertise, and principled advisors offering disciplined decision-making and independent perspectives. We are committed to continuing this growth for the benefit of our clients and the community we serve.
