TORONTO, March 10, 2021 /CNW/ - BMO today announced that it has been recognized with two digital innovation awards for BMO CashTrack, an artificial intelligence (AI) driven capability that identifies and helps customers avoid potential cash shortfalls. The solution was recognized by BAI as part of their 2020 Global Innovation Awards. As well, the solution has won a 2021 Celent Model Bank Award for financial wellness.
CashTrack leverages AI and machine learning models to provide customers with financial insights to intelligently and accurately predict cash shortfalls up to seven days in advance across a customer's accounts – a differentiator in the Canadian market. Customers receive insights from CashTrack directly within the BMO mobile banking app.

Our team has been continually working to meet our customers where they are with a seamless digital banking experience and are increasingly focused on translating our strength in advice to a digital context," said Mathew Mehrotra, Chief Digital Officer, BMO Bank of Montreal. "These awards recognize the digital-first approach we're taking to help our customers make real financial progress."
