William David Mulholland Jr. (June 16, 1926 – September 8, 2007) was an American banker who served as president, chairman, and chief executive officer of the Bank of Montreal. Mulholland began his career in 1952 with Morgan Stanley, and in 1962 was made a partner in the firm. Whilst a partner at Morgan Stanley in the 1960s, he arranged the financing for the construction of the Churchill Falls Generating Station by the British Newfoundland Corporation (Brinco). In 1970, Mulholland was appointed president of Brinco, at which time he moved to Montreal. In November 1974, Mulholland was appointed president of the Bank of Montreal, effective January 1, 1975.

He remained chief executive until July 1989, and retired as chairman at the bank's annual meeting in January 1990. Mulholland died on September 8, 2007 at age 81.
