Tenth Fifth rule, the members of the
Board of Directors of this Commission,
in a session held on January 30, 2020,
adopted the following:

taking into consideration the favorable opinion
issued by the Authorization Committee of the
National Banking and Securities Commission in its
session held on January 21, 2020,
unanimously revoked the
authorization granted by the
Ministry of Finance and Public Credit
through office number 305-I-A-39204 dated October 9, 1963,
for the establishment in national territory of
Bank of Montreal, Montreal, Canada,
Representation in Mexico, due to the
