Bank of Montreal
Canadian financial group has launched a new business suite that helps firm link their operational, financial and technology departments.

The following service offerings are linked through this new suite:

Internal audit and regulatory compliance; IT risk and cybersecurity, and digital solutions and process transformation.

“Our Process, Risk and Technology Solutions professionals are far more than IT advisors,” national practice leader Jerry Ravi, said. “These industry experts will take a 360-degree view of a client’s risk-exposure points and provide a detailed roadmap to help them fortify and enhance their business and performance outcomes.”

Separately, the firm has opened a new downtown office in West Palm Beach, Florida.

The US-headquartered business has made a number of senior hires and business moves. As reported in July, EisnerAmper has built a real estate private equity group to tap expansion in the sector. Based out of the firm’s New York City office, partner Lisa Knee is the national leader of the group. Alongside her is partner Todd Hankin, who leads the West Coast practice from the San Francisco office; and partner Maureen Blair, based in the New York City office, who leads the East Coast practice.

In March, it opened an office in London in order to launch an operation in the UK before Brexit is finalized. (In April, it also officially opened its Singapore office.) The London office is led by Robert Mirsky, partner and head of the asset management practice group.
