Once again, I want to take a few minutes to follow up with you on BMO Funds, Inc.’s decision to merge the BMO Aggressive Stock Fund into the BMO Diversified Stock Fund. BMO Asset Management Corp., the investment adviser to each Fund, recommended the merger to the Board of Directors of BMO Funds, Inc. and the Board approved the merger at a recent meeting. As a registered shareholder, BMO Asset Management Corp. values your input on the proposal. By now, you should have received copies of the proxy materials that explain the proposal in detail. With the shareholder meeting rapidly approaching, you are highly encouraged to spend some time reviewing the proxy materials and then cast your vote by the December 19, 2014 deadline.
