“Bank of Montreal to open over 130 new California locations”

“Bank of Montreal said on Tuesday it plans to open more than 130 financial centres in California and about 15 in Arizona over the next five years, as it looks to expand presence in the U.S. West following the sale of several branches across the nation last year.

BMO, the third-largest Canadian bank by market value, said in October it would sell 138 branches to First Citizens Bank, and reinvest in markets with stronger client engagement and longer-term growth prospects.”
