Popular Financial Story
The "liabilities" of the Hank—now
' Striking evidence of the modern
trend in banking methods is contain-
ed in this year's annual report of
the Bank of Montreal which—issued
in the 'form of a ,well -illustrated,
easily -understood financial story—is
lifted out of the class of the conven-
tional bank statement.
Departing from all precedent, the
Bank of Montreal tells its 1945 story
with illustrations which interpret the
financial developments of thepast
year in terms of people, and in simple
statements which take the details of

The story, is one of record deposits,
all-time high `resources and a break-
down showing just how the bank
contributes to the economic life of
Canada through its services to well
over a million customers.
In the ' old "assets" column—now
appropriately labelled "Resources
which the Bank of Montreal has to
meet its obligations"—are explana-
tions, in simple language; of 'the var-
ious . items' of the balance sheet —
cash, money, investments, stocks, call
loans, quick, assets, resources and
liabilities.
Featured in the report is the fact
that the Bank of Montreal has more
than one billion dollars invested in
