The Company's commitment to our communities was displayed in January 2025 when, in response to the devastating Southern California wildfires, the Company announced a donation of $100,000 to the American Red Cross to help support impacted people and communities. The donation was comprised of funds from the Western Alliance Community Foundation, as well as employee contributions, which donations were matched by the Bank. The Company also announced that it would dedicate $1 billion in loan capacity to support small businesses and homeowners with owner-occupied construction loans to help rebuild impacted areas.
