Combined, the banks would have some $870 billion in assets.\nBank of the West operates commercial- and consumer-banking segments, in addition to specialized financing and other services. The San Francisco-based bank has around $89 billion of deposits, assets of about $105 billion and roughly 500 branches in the Midwest and West. It has been owned by France’s BNP since 1979.\nBloomberg reported Thursday that BMO, as Bank of Montreal is known, had held initial talks about buying the BNP unit, which it said could be worth about $13.7 billion.\nBank of Montreal is the fourth-largest bank in Canada. Its U.S. division delivers about 38% of the bank’s revenue today, up from about 28% three years ago, Chief Executive Darryl White said on an investor call earlier this month. Earnings for the bank’s U.S. division rose 58% in the fourth quarter, compared with a 42% increase for its Canadian division.\nIn the U.S., BMO operates commercial, retail, wealth-management and capital-markets businesses. The bank has said it sees a major opportunity for growth in its U.S. wealth-management business.\nBMO opened its first stateside branch in 1818, about a year after its founding. In the 1990s, it became the first Canadian bank to trade on the New York Stock Exchange. The firm has a market value of around $69 billion.\nFor larger Canadian lenders that want to expand, limited domestic options for growth have prompted them to look across the southern border.\nRoyal Bank of Canada,the country’s second-largest lender, bought Los Angeles-based City National Corp. for $5.4 billion in 2015. Canada’s biggest bank,Toronto-Dominion,now operates more branches in the U.S. than in Canada.\nEuropean lenders that planted flags in the U.S. starting in the late 1980s have failed to gain much ground.Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC sold out of Citizens Financial Group Inc. in 2015.HSBC Holdings PLC said last year it would close one-third of its U.S. branches.\nBBVA of Spain agreed to sell its U.S. arm roughly a year ago to PNC Financial Services Group Inc. for around $11.6 billion in a deal that created the fifth-largest retail bank in the U.S.\nWhile big bank mergers have been rare since the 2008 crisis, there have been more so far this year than any time since then.\nBut federal financial regulators have expressed interest in tamping down on the spate of mergers. Democratic members of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s board have in recent weeks pushed to review regulations around big-bank mergers. Banking-industry officials fear that such a review by the FDIC or other regulators, namely the Federal Reserve and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, could result in stricter controls on larger deals.\nThe continued consolidation of financial institutions leaves consumers with fewer banking options and reduces competition, progressive policy makers have argued. Regional banks see joining forces as the best way to fight paltry lending profits and the ever-rising outlays required to keep pace with the technology improvements of the largest banks.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":null,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":693183026,"gmtCreate":1639985295087,"gmtModify":1639985295484,"author":{"id":"3584860762907200","authorId":"3584860762907200","name":"littlekitten","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ccd59ff6c96999c839e3b5709cfb00ef","vip":1,"crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":".","listText":".","text":".","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/693183026","repostId":1158701453,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"}],"isCommentEnd":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":11,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":false,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.25.1","shortVersion":"4.25.1","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"laohu8","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/1158701453"}
