MIKE AMASH
Partner; President
Westmount Partners
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 $5 billion by the end of 2023.
Amash’s career parallels the evolution of the broader financial industry. He started as a commission-based securities broker when the industry was on the cusp of shifting toward a fee-based model. He joined Westmount in 2002 as a senior portfolio advisor. Amash quickly emerged as a rising leader and was named one of Westmount’s first equity partners and senior vice president in 2010. As further recognition of his many contributions over the years, he was named president in 2022, cementing his status as a next-generation leader of the firm.
