A Team Approach

Decisions regarding your investments are too important to rest on the shoulders of one individual, no matter how exceptional that person may be. Rather than rely on the outlook and experience of a singular opinion, Washington Trust Bank utilizes our Portfolio Management Group and a consensus-based, team approach to expert investment strategy and decision making.
