Dave Mowat, President & CEO
Dave Mowat is a banker. That sounds pretty
straightforward. And it is, in the sense that he
deals with a lot of big numbers, understands the
confusing world of banking, leads a lot of creative
associates, and continually thinks about how to
serve hundreds of thousands of customers
across the province.
“We’re changing our world by
putting people first and
making dreams come true.”
– Dave Mowat, President &
CEO
But he’s also a banker who’s not afraid to talk
about love. Love of getting the customer the best
deal, and gaining, protecting and growing the
love and respect of all Albertans.

Our Goals
• To be #1 in every market we choose
– We believe strongly that we can take our understanding of the Alberta marketplace and our
customers, combine it with great people, sophisticated tools and process , and our deep connection
to communities, and use that unique combination to be the leader in every market we are in.
• To be the place to work
– For people who work in any aspect of the financial services industry, we want to be known as the
place to work… where they can work with people who are leaders in their field, be a part of a
symphony of specialists, where they can make a real difference for their customers, and a place
where their ideas can help shape the future of a company and the decisions we make.
• To be loved and respected by Albertans
– If we achieve the paradox of having all the sophistication and expertise of a big bank combined with
the passion and connection to customers and their communities, we believe that more and more
Albertans will be proud of “their ATB” and want to do business with a financial institution that is
uniquely Alberta.
