Canadian Western Bank, doing business as the CWB Financial Group, was a Canadian bank based in Edmonton, Alberta. The bank primarily operated in western Canada, although it also operated several branches in eastern Canada. The CWB was established in 1988 through the merger of the Bank of Alberta and the Western & Pacific Bank of Canada. In 2025, CWB was acquired by the National Bank of Canada, and its operations were rebranded under the National Bank brand. Wikipedia
