Christine Viau

Thank you, and good morning. We will begin today's call with remarks from Darryl White, BMO's CEO, followed by Tayfun Tuzun, our Chief Financial Officer; and Piyush Agrawal, our Chief Risk Officer. Also present to take questions this morning are Ernie Johannson, Head of BMO North American Personal Business Banking; Nadim Hirji, Head of BMO Commercial Banking; Alan Tannenbaum, Head of BMO Capital Markets; Deland Kamanga, Head of BMO Wealth Management; and Darrel Hackett, BMO US CEO. I would ask you to limit to one question during the Q&A to give everyone a chance to participate.

Actual results could differ materially from these statements. I would also remind listeners that the bank uses non-GAAP financial measures to arrive at adjusted results.

Darryl and Tayfun will be referring to adjusted results in their remarks unless otherwise noted as reported....
