Hutchinson/Ifrah Opens Local Offices

Hutchinson/Ifrah, a financial planning and investment managing company based in Little Rock, has opened an office in the Bella Vista branch of First Western Bank and Trust of Rogers. Additionally, the firm plans to open an office in First Western’s West Rogers Bank office, located at 2722 W. Walnut St.

First Western previously offered financial services in Northwest Arkansas through John R. Taylor Financial Group. But that relationship ended – on an amicable basis – when Taylor began negotiating to merge with Bank of the Ozarks. Ultimately, the merger fell through but First Western had begun searching for a new financial services company almost immediately after the initial announcement.

Hutchinson/Ifrah has already opened in the Bella Vista branch. The West Rogers Bank office is expected to open soon.

Hutchinson/Ifrah manages more than $150 million in client assets and also has offices in Hot Springs and Texarkana.
