Bank of Montreal CEO Bill Downe to retire in October; successor is Darryl White
– canadianbusiness.com
After more than a decade at the helm, the Bank of Montreal’s Bill Downe has announced plans to retire as CEO on Oct. 31.
He will be succeeded by Darryl White, who is currently the bank’s (TSX:BMO) chief operating officer.
In a statement issued Friday, BMO chairman Robert Prichard highlighted Downe’s efforts to transform the bank through investments in technology, as well as by improving the representation of women in senior leadership roles.
“Thanks to his leadership, the bank is in its strongest financial and strategic position in our history and well-positioned for future success,” Prichard said.
There has been a changing of the guard at Canada’s biggest banks over the past 3 1/2 years, with Royal Bank, TD Bank, Scotiabank and CIBC all appointing new chief executives.
With Downe set to retire, that leaves National Bank’s Louis Vachon as the last remaining big bank CEO who steered his company through the 2008 financial crisis.
