BMO Mutual Fund Symbols Have Changed

If you have BMO Mutual Funds in your watchlist or investment accounts, you need to change the symbol for the fund(s). Effective November 7, 2019, BMO changed the symbols of all of their mutual funds that began with GGF to beginning with BMO. Go to the Securities List. Select the BMO mutual fund and click on Edit Security Details. Replace the GGF with BMO and leave the 5 numbers as they are. Click OK. Select Copy prices as the action to take. That's it. Once you have finished changing the symbols, run One Step Update and your prices will be updated.

    Thank you. Do you have any insight as to changes to BMO funds with only 3 digits (BMO480, for example)? These are not updating either.

    BMO recently (November 7) changed the prefix of some of their mutual funds from GGF to BMO. However, many of the existing funds with the BMO prefix and only three numbers (for exanple, BMO143, BMO149 and BMO480) have disappeared from the database and no price history is available.
