First Western Bank

A bank for entrepreneurs, pioneers, and go-getters.

First Western Bank was founded in 1910 in Booneville, Arkansas, with a simple purpose: serve our neighbors well and help our communities grow. More than a century later, that purpose remains unchanged.

Over the years, bold entrepreneurs and hardworking families have transformed small towns across Western and Northwestern Arkansas into thriving communities. We’ve grown alongside them—expanding our services and expertise to support every stage of life and business—while remaining rooted in the values that shaped us from the beginning.

Today, First Western Bank offers a complete financial experience under one roof, including banking, mortgage, insurance, and investment services. Whether you’re building a business, buying a home, protecting what matters most, or planning for the future, our team is here to walk alongside you as a trusted financial partner.

What truly sets First Western apart isn’t just what we offer—it’s how we do business.

As an employee-owned, independent community bank, your deposits stay local, helping fuel growth right here at home. We believe banking should feel personal, welcoming, and grounded in trust. That’s why you’ll find knowledgeable bankers, modern and convenient locations, and service that goes the extra mile.

We call this commitment “The First Western Way.”

It means listening more than we talk. Treating people fairly. Supporting dreamers and doers. Putting faith and family first. Choosing the right way over the easy way—every time.

At First Western Bank, you’re more than a customer. You’re a neighbor. And we’re proud to serve the communities we call home.
