benefits of Gateway? BMO Nesbitt Burns provides its clients with convenient access to their accounts. This is not just an electronic version of your account statement. In Gateway you will have access to numerous tools for organizing your financial data. The Virtual Portfolio feature allows you to create a list of securities outside of your actual holdings and track them over time. You can access prices on quotable securities and obtain the latest news and charts on the companies of your choice. Eligibleš clients can view BMO Nesbitt burns' top-ranked˛ equity research as well as proprietary mutual fund research and independent third party equity research. And if you need technical assistance, the Gateway technical support team is available Monday through Friday from 8AM to 6PM.
