    Investor Presentation Q1 2018 2 CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation contains forward‐looking statements regarding, among other things, Desjardins Group’s business objectives and priorities, financial targets and maturity profile. Such statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “estimate”, “plan” and “may”, words and expressions of similar import, and future and conditional verbs. By their very nature, such statements involve assumptions, uncertainties and inherent risks, both general and specific. It is therefore possible that, due to many factors, these forward‐looking statements may not materialize or may prove to be inaccurate and that actual results differ materially. Desjardins Group cautions readers against placing undue reliance on these forward‐looking statements since actual results, conditions, actions and future events could differ significantly from those anticipated. A number of factors, many of which are beyond Desjardins Group’s control and the effects of which can be difficult to predict, could influence the accuracy of the forward‐looking statements in this presentation. These factors include: credit, market, liquidity, operational, insurance, strategic, and reputation risks; regulatory and legal environment risk; environmental risk; risk related to pension plans; technological advancement and regulatory developments; cybersecurity; household indebtedness; real estate market trends; geopolitical risks; communication and information;

  • The Canadian Banking System, 1890-1966
    JACK CARR FRANK MATHEWSON NEIL QUIGLEY Stabilityin the Absenceof DepositInsurance: The CanadianBanking System, 1890 1966 THESTABILITY OF THE CANADIAN BANKING SYSTEM in the period before the introductionof formaldeposit insurancein 1967, and in particular, the Canadianbanks' immunityfrom the crisis that afflictedthe U.S. bankingsystem in the GreatDepression, are well known. Between 1890 and 1966, only twelve Ca- nadian charteredbanks failed; six of these failures resulted in losses to the deposi- tors. No bank failures occurredafter the suspensionof the Home Bank of Canadain 1923. Explanationsfor the relative stability of Canadianbanking have focused on the structureof the system, particularlythe economies of scale and portfolio diver- sification achieved by the large branch banks in Canada (Friedmanand Schwartz 1963; Haubrich1990) and the creationof a governmentrediscount facility in 1914. Some (Bordo 1986; Shearer, Chant, and Bond 1984; White 1983) suggestthat the Canadianfederal authoritiesand the CanadianBankers Association (CBA) implic- itly guaranteedbank deposits by arrangingmergers. Most recently, Kryzanowski and Roberts (1993, p. 362) claim that all of the major Canadianbanks were insol- vent during the 1930s, and explain the absence of a banking crisis by the fact that the Canadiangovernment provided "an implicit one hundredpercent guaranteeof bank deposits." The authorsthank the staff of The Bank of Nova Scotia Archives, The CanadianBankers Association Library,and the NationalArchives of Canadafor their assistance in compiling our data. Michael Bordo, John Chant, Ian Drummond,Ron Shearer,anonymous referees, and participantsat the l9th Conference on the Use of QuantitativeMethods in CanadianEconomic Historyprovided helpful comments. Funding for this research was provided by the Institutefor Policy Analysis at the University of Torontoand the University of Westem Ontarioas partof a largerproject on deposit insurancein Canada(CalT, Mathew- son, and Quigley 1994a).

  • BANK MERGERS: IS BIGGER BETTER? Introduction
    BANK MERGERS: IS BIGGER BETTER? Introduction In January 1998, the Bank of Montreal and the Royal Bank of Canada announced plans to merge and create one superbank. A few months later, in April, the Toronto Dominion Bank and the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce announced similar plans. The proposed bank mergers caught many people off guard, including Minister of Finance Paul Martin. In a Macleans interview, Martin said, "Just because they decided to get into bed together doesnt mean that I have to bless their union." Martins message seemed to be that Ottawa, not the banks, would decide the future of banking in Canada. "There will be no mergers in the banking sector until we are convinced that [it] is what is best for Canadians, and we will not be stampeded into making that decision." According to the banks, the proposed mergers were a natural response to a changing and highly competitive global marketplace. Mergers, they said, provide a way of maintaining a strong Canadian presence in the banking industry. Certainly, recent technological advances have dramatically changed the manner in which the financial services industry conduct their business, and the above- mentioned banks feel, therefore, that they need to be bigger to compete and to have a substantial presence in the global banking community. Martin himself acknowledged the changed nature of banking when he said, "If you look back at banking five years ago, you might as well look back two centuries." While the proposed bank mergers brought attention to the challenges facing Canadas banks, these challenges are not peculiar to the banks alone.
