What We're Doing

 

Taking Action on the Environment

Since 1991, we've been taking important steps to develop programs that recognize the balance between a sustainable environment, healthy communities and economic performance. Our initiatives support our environmental objectives, which are to reduce our environmental footprint, promote environmentally responsible business activities, and offer environmental products and services. This is how RBC is contributing to the preservation of our environment and economy for future generations.

We believe our work in this area will provide short- and long-term returns for our shareholders, clients, employees and other key stakeholders. In working towards a healthy balance between environmental concerns and the economy, we've developed policies, programs and products designed to promote our priorities and leverage the business opportunities presented by growing environmental markets.
