Aboriginal Peoples

RBC Financial Group has a long history of service to the Aboriginal community. We have supported Aboriginal initiatives with specialized products and our educational programs and grants support Aboriginal community development. We have seven branches in First Nation communities, one branch in each of the three regions in Nunavut and 14 dedicated Aboriginal banking managers.

Our focus in Aboriginal communities is on youth, training, education, and economic development.
