MONTRÉAL, May 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Laurentian Bank of Canada (TSX:LB) (“Laurentian Bank”) today announces the resignation of Mr. David Morris from Laurentian Bank’s Board of Directors.

Mr. Morris was appointed to the Board in 2017 and was a contributing member of the Audit Committee, whose service as a director has been greatly appreciated.

Given the increased importance of the US business for Laurentian Bank, and the evolving competitive landscape in the US with another company whose board Mr. Morris serves on, Mr. Morris offered to resign from the Laurentian board, despite having been recently approved by 96% of the Bank’s shareholder vote. His resignation was accepted by the Board.

“On behalf of the Board of Directors, we thank Mr. Morris for his contributions and services to Laurentian Bank and wish him all the best in his future endeavours,” stated Michael Mueller, Chair of the Board.
