  • 2014 Annual Report “Going Forward, We Want to Transform Banking, Making It a Source of Pride and Value for Our Customers and Team Members
    2014 Annual Report “Going forward, we want to transform banking, making it a source of pride and value for our customers and team members. We’ll be doing things differently, making things simpler and easier, and empowering our people to make a difference in the lives of our customers. Our customers and all Albertans are asking more from of us, and that’s the most powerful reason yet to give them our higher gear.” —Dave Mowat, President and CEO 04 2013–14 Financial Highlights 28 Our Board and Their Committee Roles 38 Management’s Discussion 07 2013–14 Operational Highlights 30 Disclosure Under the Public Interest and Analysis 10 Our Strategic Direction Disclosure Act 112 Consolidated Financial 11 Chair’s Message 31 Our Senior Executives and Officers Statements 12 President and CEO’s Message 32 Building Stonger Communities and 186 Glossary 23 Introduction to ATB an Even Better Province 192 Our Branches and Agencies 26 Corporate Governance 34 A 75-Day Party, Alberta Style ATB Financial 2014 Annual Report 1 2 Higher Gear This has been an exciting year for ATB Financial. Not only have we produced the best financial results in ATB’s history, but we’ve done that while achieving the highest engagement among team members and building an even stronger reputation and connection with our customers. The natural question is: Where do we go from here? While our results this year are impressive, the potential for ATB to reach and serve even more Albertans is tremendous.

  • Demographics and the New 'Alberta Advantage' – Winners of the 'Alberta's Top Employers' Competition for 2017 Are
    Draft: March 17, 2017 Demographics and the new ‘Alberta Advantage’ – Winners of the ‘Alberta’s Top Employers’ competition for 2017 are announced CALGARY, March. 22, 2017 – There’s new cause for optimism among Alberta’s employers and job-seekers alike, as a strong slate of employers step forward as industry leaders in creating forward-thinking and progressive workplaces. Winners of this year’s Alberta’s Top Employers competition were announced today by Mediacorp Canada Inc., which organizes the national Canada’s Top 100 Employers project. “From the perspective of the competition, the range of industries represented on this year’s list is a reminder of the underlying resilience of Alberta’s economy,” says Richard Yerema, Managing Editor of the Canada’s Top 100 Employers project, which manages the competition. “It’s easy to become distracted by daily oil prices and similar news, but when you look at this year’s winners you see how deep the province’s economy runs and the range of employers that are showing leadership in these challenging economic conditions.” Demographics are very much part of the conversation, notes Kristina Leung, Senior Editor of the Canada’s Top 100 Employers project. “With Canada’s youngest workforce, Alberta is uniquely positioned to continue diversifying its economy with a large pool of highly skilled and talented employees. From software to finance and education, new industries are recognizing that the province’s highly trained talent pool is the new ‘Alberta Advantage’ and an exciting source of growth.” Now in its 12th year, Alberta's Top Employers is an editorial competition that recognizes the Alberta-based employers that lead their industries in offering exceptional places to work.

We began as a financial institution for Albertans and we have continued to focus exclusively on helping Albertans achieve their dreams for the last 75 years. We are here for this province because Alberta and the people who live here—those who were born here and those from other countries and provinces who have chosen to make their home here—are our world. As we’ve grown, we’ve developed into a sophisticated financial institution with products, services, tools, and expertise that rival those of any of the big banks. Through these resources, we connect our customers to the world. We do so in many ways, like providing financing so growing businesses can reach new markets, and connecting investors with global investment opportunities. Alberta may be our world, but there’s a whole lot of opportunity out there and it’s our job to make sure Albertans can take advantage of it. We will always be the ATB Albertans have known and relied on for 75 years. But we’re also doing things differently now.
