HilltopSecurities is a unique blend of financial strength, deep industry knowledge, and years of experience. But that’s only part of the story.

Our firm was born out of the fusion of two respected and successful firms with complementary business lines: First Southwest Company, a broker-dealer founded in 1946 and known for its municipal advisory practice, and Southwest Securities Inc., a full-service broker-dealer since 1972.

As part of Hilltop Holdings, a well-capitalized and publicly traded parent company, we’re backed by a strong and diverse financial services enterprise. One that’s focused on moving our clients forward. Nothing better represents this than our iconic buffalo mascot, “Mo,” a symbol for our collective strength, unified force, and the unstoppable momentum of an advancing herd.

We are an integrated financial services company focused on protecting the assets of our widely varied client base through insurance and wealth management solutions. Our mission is to protect assets and make a difference, not only for clients, but also within the communities in which we operate.

We provide both strategic guidance and hands-on support to help clients attract, manage, and scale their extended workforce—from temporary staff to independent contractors and project-based teams. Our approach enhances agility, strengthens compliance, and reduces risk—while giving you direct access to top talent.
