MICHAEL AMASH
President
Westmount Asset Management
Mike Amash has distinguished himself as a trusted advisor among his clients and a respected leader behind the scenes. He has also played an important role in facilitating Westmount’s transformation from a small independent advisor managing $250 million in assets to one of Los Angeles’ pre-eminent advisory firms overseeing over $4.5 billion by the end of 2022.
Amash joined Westmount in 2002 as a senior portfolio advisor, drawn to the firm’s fiduciary approach that sought to eliminate conflicts of interest and align the goals of client and firm. He quickly emerged as a rising leader and was named one of Westmount’s first equity partners and senior vice president in 2010. Amash was named president in 2022, cementing his status as a next generation leader of the firm. Since transitioning to this role last year, he has presided over a remarkable period of growth and transformation for the firm.
