Since 1902, Washington Trust Bank has transcended generations to maintain its founding ownership.
Four generations of wise, practical leadership have led Washington Trust Bank to be the oldest and largest privately-owned commercial bank in the Pacific Northwest. Our assets exceed $4 billion, and we have more than 40 financial centers and offices in Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Utah and Arizona, and nearly 750 employees. Click here to learn about the strength of our bank.
Since the beginning, our success has been merited by exceptional customer service and understanding and meeting the needs of our customers. One of the Bank's greatest strengths is empowering employees to make decisions that create value for our customers; decisions are made locally based on what is happening right in your area.
We're unique in banking; we're small enough to know each customer as a friend, yet large enough to offer a full suite of products and services typically found in larger banks. We've helped individuals, families and businesses reach their financial goals by offering all the products and services needed in a financial partner, including personal and commercial banking, home loans, private banking, wealth management and advisory services and investment and trust services.
As a strong community partner, Washington Trust Bank is committed to making the neighborhoods we serve great places to live, work and raise a family. Our financial center team members are also your neighbors, friends and unyielding advocates of community causes.
