During the war years, these people took the opportunity to boost their ‘Fund For Tomorrow* to $1,613,000,000. Their habit of saving for the years ahead has hot only persisted since the war but has gained in strength, Today, their de posits stand at mote than two billion dollars — an all-time B of M record and the largest Canadian deposits of any bank. Of this money, well over a billion dollars is In savings. The fact that the B of M’s resources also have topped the two-bill ion mark during the past year proves one thing clearly— that the size of a financial institution such as the iBank of Montreal simply reflects the measure of confidence a million and a half Canadian men and women share in it. And by thinking of tomorrow, these people are helping to build the Canada of today and tomorrow. For their savings de termine the support the Bank can bring — through investments and loans —to the enterprise of men and businesses across the nation. Indeed, this year, loans made by the B of M are the highest they’ve ever been. Working with the people of Canada for the past 132 years, the Bank has kept continually before it these two guiding purposes — to assist actively the nation’s economic development and to justify al* ways the conhdence of its depositors.
