It was chartered in 1984.[1] The Bank later became part of Canadian Western Bank (CWB), and was formed during a challenging economic environment that pushed many competitors to rein in their activities in key western markets.[1] As a result, the bank ultimately had a significant impact on the evolution of modern banking in Western Canada.[1] In 1988, the Bank of Alberta amalgamated with Western & Pacific Bank to become Canadian Western Bank (CWB).[2] As of 2010, the CWB has total balance sheet assets of just under $12 billion, assets under administration of over $8 billion and assets under management approaching $1 billion.[3] FormationWhen the bank commenced operations in 1984 it was led by Canadian Business Hall of Fame member Dr. Charles Allard[2][4] and Eugene Pechet,[2][4][5] starting with three employees working out of a boardroom located in one of Pechet's hotels in Edmonton, Alberta.[5] The government supported the newly formed Bank of Alberta by investing in 5% of its shares.[6] See also
