Company Information

Get to know First Foundation

Founded in 1990, First Foundation Inc. operated as a comprehensive financial services company dedicated to providing integrated solutions to individuals, businesses, and nonprofits. The company's core mission was to offer a "single-point-of-contact" model, combining the services of a bank, a wealth management firm, and a trust company. It grew significantly through organic expansion and acquisitions, serving clients primarily in California, Texas, Nevada, and Hawaii. In February 2024, facing pressures in the regional banking sector, First Foundation Inc. completed a merger with PacWest Bancorp. The combined holding company now operates as Pacific Western Bancorp (NASDAQ: PACW), and the bank operates as Pacific Western Bank, effectively retiring the First Foundation brand.

License

A Grade License

Issued by globally renowned regulators, these licenses ensure the highest trader protection through strict compliance, fund segregation, insurance, and regular audits. Dispute resolution and adherence to AML/CTF standards further enhance security.

B Grade License

Granted by respected regional regulators, these licenses offer robust safety measures such as fund segregation, financial reporting, and compensation schemes. Though slightly less strict than Tier 1, they provide dependable regional protection.

C Grade License

Issued by regulators in emerging markets, these licenses offer basic protections such as minimum capital requirements and AML policies. Oversight is less stringent, so traders should exercise caution and verify safety measures.

D Grade License

From jurisdictions with minimal oversight, these licenses often lack key protections like fund segregation and insurance. While attractive for operational flexibility, they pose higher risks to traders.
