BMO Capital Markets CEO Dan Barclay said: “The acquisition of Radicle supports BMO’s Climate Ambition to be our clients’ lead partner in the transition to a net-zero world, and the progress we’re making for a thriving economy, a sustainable future, and an inclusive society.

“Radicle’s leading expertise and innovative solutions make BMO a leader in carbon credit development capabilities and the environmental commodity market.

“These capabilities enhance our commitment to help our clients understand and manage the risks and opportunities of energy transition.”

BMO noted that carbon markets help in reducing the effects of climate change and facilitate the development of a sustainable future.

Recently, carbon markets have seen a significant expansion across the globe since businesses and individuals help develop technologies required to achieve net zero emissions.

In December last year, BMO Financial Group announced that its fully-owned subsidiary BMO Harris Bank signed a deal to buy Bank of the West and its subsidiaries from BNP Paribas for $16.3bn in cash.

The deal has enabled BMO to achieve its strategic, financial, and cultural goals, said the company.
