At BMO we are proud to be Growing the Good in business and in life, and to take every opportunity to help build a more sustainable world. On Earth Day 2021, our Fixed Income Currencies and Commodities group committed to funding reforestation with every dollar of fixed income securities and ESG framework securities traded on the BMO Capital Markets desk. We are pleased to announce that these efforts will result in the planting of 100,000 trees.

Trees from Trades is a key part of our ongoing commitment to combat climate change by reducing carbon emissions and working toward a net zero carbon footprint. All tree planting will be carried out in partnership with Priceless Planet Coalition and Tentree.

Planting trees is a natural way to reduce the impact of greenhouse gas emissions that also creates jobs and recharges local ecosystems. We thank our clients for helping us build a better tomorrow.
