Banking on Purpose: A Fireside Chat with Darrel Hackett, President & CEO, BMO Bank N.A.

Join us for a fireside chat with Darrel Hackett, BMO Bank’s president and CEO.


In 2023, BMO completed the $16 billion acquisition of San Francisco-based Bank of the West, doubling its U.S. footprint. Under Hackett's leadership, BMO is now a top 10 U.S. bank with significant growth ambitions. 


In contrast to recent high-profile corporate departures from the Bay Area, BMO has boldly entered the market with this major acquisition and a $16 billion commitment for community giving and lending in California. BMO is driven by a single purpose—to Boldly Grow the Good in business and life—and is committed to making progress for a thriving economy, sustainable future, and inclusive society. In conversation with ABC 7 Anchor Dan Ashley, Hackett will share more about BMO’s headline-making growth and purpose-driven corporate leadership, as well as the bank’s future in the Bay Area and beyond.

This program is generously supported by BMO.
