CHARYL GALPIN
BMO Nesbitt Burns
Canada’s oldest bank also happens to be one of its most innovative – the Bank of Montreal became the first of the big five to start using robo-advisors in January with its SmartFolio system. Charyl Galpin, CEO of BMO Nesbitt Burns, has been clear on the merits of the shift, part of a concentrated effort to appeal to the tech-savvy but often time-poor millennial generation. Galpin first joined BMO in 1979 and has risen through the ranks within the institution ever since, taking the reins at Nesbitt Burns in 2014. Embracing the evolution of the industry has been key to her success, and leading the bank’s investment arm has meant being one step ahead of those changes.
