BMO Global Strategic Bond Fund(unaudited)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (All amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per unit data)March 31, 2014
1. The FundBMO Global Strategic Bond Fund ("the Fund") is an open-ended mutual fund trust established under the laws of the province of Ontario and is governed by a Master Declaration of Trust dated November 6, 2007. The Master Declaration of Trust was amended on October 23, 2008 and November 3, 2009 to permit certain funds to offer a multi-series structure. In addition to the existing Series A units, certain Funds are permitted to offer Series I, Series F, Advisor Series, Series T5, Series T6 and/or Classic Series units. Each series is intended for different kinds of investors and has different management fees and fixed administration fees. Refer to Note 7(a) for the Fund's series and respective launch date(s) and Note 7(d) for management fee rates and fixed administration fee rates for each series. BMO Investments Inc. (the "Manager") is the manager and Trustee of the Fund. The Manager is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bank of Montreal. The information provided in these unaudited financial statements is for the period(s) ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 except for the comparative information in the Statement of Net Assets and the related notes which are as at September 30, 2013. Financial information provided for a fund established during the period(s) is presented from the date of inception as noted in Note 7(a). Financial information provided for a series established during the period(s) is presented from the launch date as noted in Note 7(a). 2. Summary of significant accounting policiesThese interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("Canadian GAAP"), including estimates and assumptions made by management that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from estimates. Fund mergersThe Manager has adopted the purchase method of accounting for certain Fund mergers which occurred during the periods. Under this method, one of the Funds in each merger is identified as the acquiring Fund, and is referred to as the "Continuing Fund", and the other Fund involved in the merger is referred to as the "Terminated Fund". This identification is based on
the comparison of the relative net asset values of the Funds as well as consideration of the continuation of such aspects of the Continuing Fund as: investment advisors; investment objectives and practices; type of portfolio securities; and management fees and expenses. Where applicable, refer to Note 7(a) for the details of the merger transactions. Valuation of investmentsCanadian GAAP requires the use of bid prices for long positions and ask prices for short positions in the fair valuation of investments traded in an active market, rather than the use of closing prices currently used for the purpose of determining Net Asset Value ("NAV"). For investments that are not traded in an active market, Canadian GAAP requires the use of valuation techniques, incorporating factors that market participants would consider in setting a price. The NAV is the value of the total assets of a Fund less the fair value of its total liabilities at a Valuation Date (the "Valuation Date" is each day on which the Toronto Stock Exchange is open for trading) determined in accordance with Part 14 of National Instrument 81-106 - Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure ("NI 81-106") for the purpose of processing unitholder transactions. For financial statement purposes, valuations are determined in accordance with Canadian GAAP. This may result in a difference between the NAV per unit for each series and the net assets per unit for each series. Refer to Note 7(b) for the comparison between NAV per unit and net assets per unit for each series. Investments are deemed to be held for trading. Investments are recorded at their fair value with the change between this amount and average cost being recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of investments in the Statement of Operations. Securities listed on a recognized public securities exchange in North America are valued for financial statement purposes at their bid prices for long positions and ask prices for short positions. Procedures are in place to fair value securities traded in countries outside of North America daily, to avoid stale prices and to take into account, among other things, any significant events occurring after the close of a foreign market.

other debt securities, the fair value represents the bid price provided by independent security pricing services. Short-term investments are included in the Statement of Investment Portfolio at their fair value. Unlisted warrants are valued based on a pricing model which considers factors such as the market value of the underlying security, strike price and terms of the warrant. Mutual fund units and exchange traded funds held as investments are valued at their respective NAVs on each Valuation Date, as these values are the most readily and regularly available. When the price of a security held in the Fund is unavailable, unreliable or not considered to reflect the current value, the Manager may determine another value which it considers to be fair and reasonable using the services of third-party valuation service providers, or using a valuation technique that, to the extent possible, makes maximum use of inputs and assumptions based on observable market data including volatility, comparable companies and other applicable rates or prices. Investment transactionsInvestment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains (losses) from the sale of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the value of investments are calculated with reference to the average cost of the related investments which exclude brokerage commissions and other trading expenses. All net realized gains (losses), unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value, and transaction costs are attributable to investments and derivative instruments which are deemed held for trading, and are included in the Statement of Operations. Client brokerage commissions, where applicable, are used as payment for order execution services or research services. The portfolio advisors or Manager may select brokers, including their affiliates, who charge a commission in excess of that charged by other brokers ("soft dollars") if they determine in good faith that the commission is reasonable in relation to the order execution and research services utilized. It is the Manager's objective that over time, all clients receive benefits from the client brokerage commissions. Transaction costs, such as brokerage commissions, incurred in the purchase and sale of securities by the
Fund are expensed and included in "Commissions and other portfolio transaction costs" in the Statement of Operations. Cost of investmentsThe cost of investments represents the amount paid for each security and is determined on an average cost basis. Income recognitionInterest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Dividend income and distributions from investment trust units are recognized on the ex-dividend and ex-distribution date, respectively. Interest on inflation-indexed bonds will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. The inflation adjustment of the principal value is recognized as part of interest income in the Statement of Operations. If held to maturity, the Fund will receive, in addition to a coupon interest payment, a final payment equal to the sum of the par value and the inflation compensation accrued from the original issue date. Interest is accrued on each Valuation Date based on the inflation adjusted par value at that time and is included in "Interest" in the Statement of Operations. Translation of foreign currenciesThe fair value of investments and other assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into the Fund's functional currency at the rates of exchange prevailing at the period-end date. Purchases and sales of investments, and income and expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Foreign exchange gains (losses) on completed transactions are included in "Realized gain (loss) on sale of investments" and unrealized foreign exchange gains (losses) are included in "Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of investments" in the Statement of Operations. Realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains (losses) on assets (other than investments) and liabilities are included in "Realized gain (loss) on foreign exchange" in the Statement of Operations. Forward currency contractsA forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties (the Fund and the counterparty) to purchase or sell a currency against another currency
BMO Global Strategic Bond Fund(unaudited)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont’d)(All amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per unit data)March 31, 2014
at a set price on a future date. The Fund may enter into forward currency contracts for hedging purposes which can include the hedging of all or a portion of the currency exposure of an investment or group of investments, either directly or indirectly. The Fund may also enter into these contracts for non-hedging purposes which can include increasing the exposure to a foreign currency or to shift exposure to foreign currency fluctuations from one country to another. The value of forward currency contracts entered into by the Fund is recorded as the difference between the value of the contract on the Valuation Date and the value on the date the contract originated. Changes in the value of open forward currency contracts at each Valuation Date are recognized in the Statement of Operations as "Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of forward currency contracts". Amounts realized at the close of the contracts are recorded as "Realized gain (loss) on forward currency contracts" in the Statement of Operations. Futures contractsFutures contracts are financial agreements to purchase or sell a financial instrument at a contracted price on a specified future date. Futures contracts are valued at the gain or loss that would arise as a result of closing the position at the Valuation Date, the "notional value". Any difference between the notional value on each Valuation Date and the notional value on the previous Valuation Date is recorded as "Net income (loss) from derivative contracts" in the Statement of Operations. Treasury bills or cash are held as margin against the futures contracts. Credit default swap contractsA credit default swap contract is an agreement to transfer credit risk from one party, a buyer of protection, to another party, a seller of protection. The Fund as a seller of protection would be required to pay a notional or other agreed upon value to the buyer of protection in the event of a default by a third-party. In return, the Fund would receive from the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default occurs. If no default occurs, the Fund would keep the stream of payments and would have no payment obligations.
The Fund as a buyer of protection would receive a notional or other agreed upon value from the seller of protection in the event of a default by a third-party. In return, the Fund would be required to pay to the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default occurs. Credit default swap contracts are fair valued daily based upon quotations from independent security pricing sources. Premiums paid or received, if any, are included in "Net income from derivative contracts" in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments are accrued daily and recorded as "Net income (loss) from derivative contracts" in the Statement of Operations. When credit default swap contracts expire or are closed out, gains or losses are recorded as "Net income (loss) from derivative contracts" in the Statement of Operations. Option contractsThe Fund may engage in option contract transactions by purchasing (long positions) or writing (short positions) call or put option contracts. These contracts have different risk exposures for the Fund whereas the risk for long positions will be limited to the premium paid to purchase the option contracts, the risk exposure for the short position is potentially unlimited until closed or expired. Purchased option contractsThe premium paid for purchasing a call option is recorded as an asset in the Statement of Net Assets. The premium is valued at every Valuation Date at an amount equal to the fair value of the option that would have the effect of closing the position. The change in the difference between the premium and the fair value is shown as "Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of investments" in the Statement of Operations. When a purchased option expires, the Fund will realize a loss equal to the premium paid. When a purchased option is closed, the gain or loss the Fund will realize will be the difference between the proceeds and the premium paid. When a purchased call option is exercised, the premium paid is added to the cost of acquiring the underlying security. When a purchased put option is exercised, the premium paid will be

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont’d)(All amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per unit data)March 31, 2014
subtracted from the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security that had to be sold. Written option contractsThe premium received from writing a call or put option is recorded as a liability in the Statement of Net Assets. When a written option expires, the Fund will realize a gain equal to the premium received. When a written option is closed, the Fund will realize a gain or loss equal to the difference between the cost at which the contract was closed and the premium received. When a written call option is exercised, the premium received is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying investments to determine the realized gain or loss. When a written put option is exercised, the premium received will be subtracted from the cost of the underlying investment the Fund had purchased. The gain or loss that the Fund realizes when a purchased or written option is expired or closed is recorded as "Net income (loss) from derivative contracts" in the Statement of Operations. Securities lending A Fund may engage in securities lending pursuant to the terms of an agreement which includes restrictions as set out in Canadian securities legislation. Collateral held is government Treasury Bills and qualified Notes. Income from securities lending, where applicable, is included in the Statement of Operations and is recognized when earned. The securities on loan continue to be displayed in the Statement of Investment Portfolio. The market value of the securities loaned and collateral held is determined daily. Aggregate fair values of securities on loan and related collateral held in trust as at March 31, 2014 and September 30, 2013, where applicable, are disclosed in Note 7(h). Increase or decrease in net assets from operations per unit"Increase (decrease) in net assets from operations per unit" of a series in the Statement of Operations represents the increase (decrease) in net assets from operations attributable to the series, divided by the weighted average number of units of the series outstanding during the period.
Short-term trading penaltyTo discourage excessive trading, the Fund may, at the Manager's sole discretion, charge a short-term trading penalty. This penalty is paid directly to the Fund and is included in "Interest" in the Statement of Operations, if any. Other assets and liabilitiesIncome receivable, subscriptions receivable, receivable for margins on futures and due from broker are designated as loans and receivables and recorded at cost or amortized cost. Similarly, amounts due to broker, payables for margins on futures, redemptions payable, distributions payable and accrued expenses are designated as financial liabilities and reported at amortized cost. Other assets and liabilities are short-term in nature, and are carried at cost or amortized cost which approximates fair value. Future accounting standardsCanadian investment entities will be required to prepare their financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2014. As a result, the Fund will report its financial results for the interim period ending March 31, 2015, prepared on an IFRS basis, including an opening balance sheet as at October 1, 2013 ("transition date"). The differences between the Fund's accounting policies under Canadian GAAP and IFRS requirements will result in measurement and recognition differences on transition to IFRS. The net impact of these differences will be recorded in the increase/decrease in net assets attributable to redeemable unitholders. Significant accounting changes resulting from our adoption of IFRSThe main accounting changes listed below should not be considered a comprehensive list of impacts of adopting IFRS, but rather the most significant of certain key changes. The framework for fair valuation is set out under IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement (“IFRS 13”), which includes the requirements for the measurement and disclosure of fair value. If an asset or liability measured at fair value has a bid price and an ask price, the
BMO Global Strategic Bond Fund(unaudited)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont’d)(All amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per unit data)March 31, 2014
standard requires valuation to be based on a price within the bid-ask spread that is most representative of fair value. The standard allows the use of mid-market pricing or other pricing conventions that are used by market participants as a practical means for fair value measurements within a bid-ask spread. Thus this standard will impact the net assets per unit for financial statement reporting purposes compared to current standards, and may also result in the elimination of the differences between the net asset per unit and NAV per unit at the reporting date. While IFRS does not require interest income to be disclosed for debt instruments measured at Fair Value through Profit or Loss, when interest income is disclosed, IFRS requires that the effective interest rate method of calculating accrued interest be used rather than the straight-line amortization method. The Manager is assessing the impact of this change to the Fund’s financial statements. The Manager has not identified any changes that will impact NAV per unit as a result of the transition to IFRS. Where the Fund holds controlling interest in an investment, it is the Manager’s expectation that the Fund will qualify as an Investment Entity in accordance with IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements. As such, the Fund will not be required to consolidate its investments, but rather to hold the investments at Fair Value through Profit or Loss regardless of whether those investments are controlled. If the Fund fair values the investments it controls, it may be required to make additional financial statement disclosures on its controlled investments in accordance with IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities (“IFRS 12”). IFRS 12 also requires additional disclosures if the Fund is determined to qualify as an investment entity without having all of the typical characteristics of an investment entity. The criteria contained within IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation (“IAS 32”) will result in the classification of the unitholders’ equity as a liability within the Fund’s Statement of Net Assets, unless all conditions required for equity classification are met. The Manager is currently assessing the Fund’s unitholder structure to determine classification under IAS 32. Under IFRS, statement of cash flows is one of the
primary financial statements required to be presented. The Fund will therefore be presenting statement of cash flows in its set of financial statements in accordance with the presentation requirements in IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows (“IAS 7”). 3. Unit valuation Units of the Fund are offered for sale on a continuous basis and may be purchased or redeemed on any Valuation Date at the NAV per unit of a particular series. The NAV per unit of a series for the purposes of subscription or redemption is computed by dividing the NAV of the Fund attributable to the series (that is, the total fair value of the assets attributable to the series less the liabilities attributable to the series) by the total number of units of the series of the Fund outstanding at such time. This amount may be different from the net assets per unit of a series calculation, which is presented on the Statement of Net Assets. Generally, any differences are due to valuing actively traded securities at bid prices for Canadian GAAP purposes while NAV typically utilizes closing price to determine fair value for the purchase and redemption of units. See Note 7(b) for the comparison between NAV per unit and net assets per unit for each series. Expenses directly attributable to a series are charged to that series. Other expenses, income, realized and unrealized gains and losses from investment transactions are allocated proportionately to each series based upon the relative NAV of each series. CapitalThe capital of the Fund is represented by issued and redeemable units with no par value. The units are entitled to distributions, if any, and to payment of a proportionate share based on the Fund's NAV per unit upon redemption. The Fund has no restrictions or specific capital requirements on the subscriptions and redemptions of units except as disclosed in Note 7(a), if any. The relevant movements in capital are shown on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets. In accordance with its investment objectives and strategies, and the risk management practices outlined in Note 6, the Fund endeavours to invest the subscriptions received in appropriate investments while maintaining sufficient liquidity to meet redemptions, such liquidity being augmented by short-term borrowings or disposal of investments where necessary.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont’d)(All amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per unit data)March 31, 2014
4. Income taxesThe Fund qualifies as a mutual fund trust under the provisions of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act"). Distributions of all net taxable income and sufficient amounts of net realized capital gains for each taxation year will be paid to unitholders. Part of the Fund's net income and net realized capital gains not paid or payable, is subject to income tax. It is the intention of the Fund to distribute all of its income and sufficient net realized capital gains so that the Fund will not be subject to income tax. Income tax on net realized capital gains not paid or payable is generally recoverable by virtue of refunding provisions contained in tax legislation, as redemptions occur. Non-capital losses that arose in 2004 and 2005 are available to be carried forward for ten years and applied against future taxable income. Non-capital losses that arose in 2006 and thereafter are available to be carried forward for twenty years. Capital losses for income tax purposes may be carried forward indefinitely and applied against capital gains realized in future years. The Fund's non-capital and capital losses for income tax purposes as of the tax year-ended December 2013 are included in Note 7(c), if applicable. 5. Related party transactions(a) Management feesThe Manager is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund and its investment portfolio in compliance with the Fund's constating documents. The Manager monitors and evaluates the performance of the Fund, pays for the investment management services of the investment advisors and provides all related administrative services required by the Fund. As compensation for its services the Manager is entitled to receive a fee payable monthly, calculated at the maximum annual rates included in Note 7(d). (b) Fixed administration feesThe Manager pays certain operating expenses of the Fund in return for a fixed administration fee, which is paid for by the Fund. Certain specified expenses are paid directly by the Fund and include interest and borrowing expenses, costs and expenses related to the operation of the Fund's Independent Review Committee, taxes to which the Fund is or might be subject, and costs associated with compliance with
any new governmental or regulatory requirement introduced after December 1, 2007 (e.g., cost associated with the production of Fund Facts fees). The fixed administration fee is calculated daily as a fixed annual percentage of the average NAV of the Fund. Refer to Note 7(d) for the fixed administration fee rates charged to the Fund. (c) Administration servicesThe Manager and its affiliates provide the Fund with certain facilities and services. Expenses are incurred by the Manager and by other members of Bank of Montreal Group of Companies for administration services required by the Fund, such as fund accounting, record keeping, processing orders, issuing statements, for acting as trustee for registered plans and for general administrative support. These fees are included in "Administration fees" in the Statement of Operations. The Manager may, in some years and in certain cases, absorb a portion of management fees, fixed administration fees, administration services or certain specified expenses of the Fund or series of the Fund. The decision to absorb these expenses is reviewed periodically and determined at the discretion of the Manager, without notice to unitholders. (d) Commissions and other portfolio transaction costsThe Fund may execute trades with and or through BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., an affiliate of the Manager, based on established standard brokerage agreements at market prices. These fees are included in "Commissions and other portfolio transaction costs" in the Statement of Operations. Refer to Note 7(e) for related party fees charged to the Fund for the periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, where applicable. (e) Initial investmentsIn order to establish a new Fund, the Manager makes an initial investment in the Fund. Pursuant to the policies of the Canadian Securities Administrators, an initial investor cannot redeem its investments until an additional $500 has been received from other investors with respect to the same series of units. Refer to Note 7(d) for the investment in units of the Fund held by the Manager as at March 31, 2014 and September 30, 2013, where applicable.

(f) Other related party transactionsFrom time to time, the Manager may on behalf of the Fund enter into transactions or arrangements with or involving other members of Bank of Montreal Group of Companies, or certain other persons or companies that are related or connected to the Manager of the Fund. These transactions or arrangements may include transactions or arrangements with or involving Bank of Montreal Group of Companies, BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., BMO Harris Investment Management Inc., BMO Asset Management Inc., BMO InvestorLine Inc., HIM Monegy Inc., BMO Trust Company, Pyrford International Ltd., Lloyd George Management Inc., or other investment funds offered by BMO and may involve the purchase or sale of portfolio securities through or from a member of Bank of Montreal Group of Companies, the purchase or sale of securities issued or guaranteed by a member of Bank of Montreal Group of Companies, the purchase or redemption of units or shares of other BMO Mutual Funds or the provision of services to the Manager. 6. Financial Instrument RiskThe Fund may be exposed to a variety of financial risks that are concentrated in its investment holdings, including derivative instruments. The Statement of Investment Portfolio groups securities by asset type, geographic region and/or market segment. The Fund's risk management practice includes the monitoring of compliance to investment guidelines. The Manager manages the potential effects of these financial risks on the Fund's performance by employing and overseeing professional and experienced portfolio managers that regularly monitor the Fund's positions, market events and diversify investment portfolios within the constraints of the investment guidelines. Where the Fund invests in other investment fund(s), it may be indirectly exposed to the financial instrument risks of the underlying fund(s), depending on the investment objectives and the type of securities held by the underlying fund(s). The decision to buy or sell an underlying fund is based on the investment guidelines and positions, rather than the exposure of the underlying fund(s). (a) Currency riskCurrency risk is the risk that the value of investments
denominated in currencies, other than the functional currency of the Fund, will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Investments in foreign markets are exposed to currency risk as the prices denominated in foreign currencies are converted to the Fund's functional currency in determining fair value. The Fund may enter into forward currency contracts for hedging purposes to reduce foreign currency exposure or to establish exposure to foreign currencies. The Fund's exposure to currency risk, if any, is further discussed in Note 7(f). (b) Interest rate riskInterest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of the Fund's interest-bearing investments will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Fund's exposure to interest rate risk is concentrated in its investment in debt securities (such as bonds, money market instruments, short-term investments and debentures) and interest rate derivative instruments, if any. Other assets and liabilities are short-term in nature and/or non-interest bearing. The Fund's exposure to interest rate risk, if any, is further discussed in Note 7(f). (c) Other market riskOther market risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in a market. Other assets and liabilities are monetary items that are short-term in nature, as such they are not subject to other market risk. The Fund's exposure to other market risk, if any, is further discussed in Note 7(f). (d) Credit riskCredit risk is the risk that a loss could arise from a security issuer or counterparty to a financial instrument not being able to meet its financial obligations. The fair value of debt securities includes consideration of the credit worthiness of the debt issuer. Credit risk exposure for over-the-counter derivative instruments is based on the Fund's unrealized gain of the contractual obligations with the counterparty as at the reporting date. The credit exposure of other assets is represented by its carrying amount. The Fund's exposure to credit risk, if any, is
BMO Global Strategic Bond Fund(unaudited)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont’d)(All amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per unit data)March 31, 2014
further discussed in Note 7(f). The Fund may enter into securities lending transactions with approved counterparties. Credit risk associated with these transactions is considered minimal as all counterparties have a sufficient approved credit rating and the market value of collateral held by the Fund must be at least 102% of the fair value of securities loaned, as disclosed in Note 7(h). (e) Liquidity riskThe Fund's exposure to liquidity risk is concentrated in the daily cash redemptions of units. The Fund primarily invests in securities that are traded in active markets and can be readily disposed. In addition, the Fund retains sufficient cash and cash equivalent positions to maintain liquidity. The Fund may, from time to time, enter into over-the-counter derivative contracts or invest in unlisted securities, which are not traded in an organized market and may be illiquid. Securities for which a market quotation could not be obtained and may be illiquid are identified on the Statement of Investment Portfolio. The proportion of illiquid securities to the NAV of the Fund is monitored by the Manager to ensure it does not exceed the regulatory limit and does not significantly affect the liquidity required to meet the Fund's financial obligations.
