History
In 1987, BMO Bank of Montreal acquired Nesbitt Thomson, then one of Canada's oldest investment houses. In 1994, BMO Bank of Montreal also acquired Burns Fry, a dealer of Canadian equities and debt securities. Nesbitt Thomson and Burns Fry then merged to become BMO Nesbitt Burns.[1]
After the case was filed in 2013,[2] in 2016, BMO Nesbitt Burns settled for $12.5 million over a class action lawsuit filed against the company for unpaid overtime.[3]
