Executive Vice President and Chief Economist
BMO Financial Group

Dr. Sherry Cooper is in constant demand as a speaker and writer because of her ability to simplify and de-mystify the complex subjects of economics and finance. Sherry is also very good at what she does. She received the Lawrence Klein Award for U.S. forecasting accuracy in 2010, beating out a panel of 50 economists predicting the four-year period from 2006 to 2009. This was no mean feat, as the period encompassed the U.S. housing bubble, financial crisis, recession and recovery.

Canada’s national newspaper calls Sherry “the megawatt celebrity economist”. She leads a highly respected team of economists and has been repeatedly cited as one of the most influential women in Canada. Dr, Cooper is regularly quoted in the financial press and you have heard her often on radio and TV. Sherry published her third book, The New Retirement: How It Will Change Our Future in January 2008 and it was a blockbuster bestseller.
