Q: CM reported a low provision for estimated loan loss, while BMO reported a higher provision. My question is do all Canadian banks follow the same criteria to determine if a specific loan is bad? If not the same criteria, the amount of provision is quite subjective.

Q: Good Morning

With the banks reporting next week, I have read it may not be so much about actual results but more about future guidance.

Do you have thoughts on which banks(s) will have results that you and/or the market view positively and which ones will be viewed negatively.

Thank you

Ian
