Although the Metropolitan Bank may 2).;- considercd one of Canada’s youngest banks, having both founded as reCcnl- ly as IOU/i. the splendid rqsultsoi its oper- ations forthe past year, slunving the re- markable strength which it has attain- ed it so short a time, reflect greatest credit upon its management. Com- pared with the figures for 1906 those for 1907 Show a steady increase all along the line. Deposits by the public reached the large total of four million and six thousand dollars as against three millions six hundred thousand last year” The amount of its innue- diately available assets prove its strong position, as these amount to twc million six hundred and three IllCLlStlllfl dollars. The paid up capi- tal of this institution is one million dollars, behind which there is a re.- scrve fund of another million dollars. After payment of eighty thousand dol- lars in dividends to its shareholders and lhewrilingoffof ten thousand dol- lars from bank premises account. the substantial balance of Siltljflfl has been carried forward to neit year. The profits for the year amount. to Stilth. which is equal to “.78 of its capital. The hundred dollar shares of this Bank are to-day worth one hundred and ninety-two dollars. Figures such as these demonstrate in n: uncertain fashion what success a young bank can achieve under capable and judiciously conservative manage- ment. and warrant the trust of the Canadian people in this young financial giant. .,.
