WESTAMERICA BANCORPORATION is a Public Limited Company registered in United States under 0645328, and its current status with California Secretary of State — bizfile Online is active. The company was incorporated on 11 February 1972 and lists its registered address as United States. 2 shareholders are on record for WESTAMERICA BANCORPORATION, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from California Secretary of State — bizfile Online and was last updated on 25 September 2026.

Shareholders

2

Shareholders of WESTAMERICA BANCORPORATION

Two shareholders are currently on record for WESTAMERICA BANCORPORATION, reflecting the stock ledger maintained under state corporate law (e.g. §219 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) rather than a public filing. The largest of these is Fidelity Salem Street Trust-Fidelity Small Cap Index Fund, holding 1.3% — the largest recorded stake — followed by SPDR SERIES TRUST-State Street SPDR Portfolio S&P 600 Small Cap ETF at 1.2%. Because every shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

Group Structure

Group structure of WESTAMERICA BANCORPORATION

WESTAMERICA BANCORPORATION has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 5 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 1 jurisdiction. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

  • Westamerica Bank (United States)
  • Money Outlet, Inc. (United States)
  • Weststar Mortgage Corporation (United States)
  • Westamerica Commercial Credit, Inc. (United States)
  • Westamerica Mortgage Company (United States)

Data availability

Those 5 subsidiaries span United States jurisdiction, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. One of the 5 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
