Electronic Bank Statements

 

One of the easiest ways to make a difference to the environment is to reduce the amount of paper you use and receive. When it comes to banking, you can switch from paper to electronic statements. By viewing your statements online and by using Online and Telephone Banking more frequently to view your accounts, pay bills and make other transactions, you'll be saving not only trees, water, and energy, but also reducing emissions.

Do your part by switching to eStatements. Today, RBC offers eStatements for the following Canadian products: Visa, Direct Investing, Dominion Securities, Home Equity, Royal Credit Line, Day-to-Day Chequing/Savings and E-savings accounts.  You can also sign up now to receive your first Business Deposit Account eStatement in September 2008.

We’re Making a Difference Today

Together with our clients, we have made great strides in reducing the amount of paper we use. Since January 2006, over 4.7 million RBC accounts have been switched from paper statements to electronic statements. The resulting paper savings amount to approximately 980 metric tonnes of paper. Using the Environmental Defense Fund Paper Calculator, these paper savings are equivalent to nearly 28,000 trees!

How You Can Help

You can help make a difference to the environment by switching to electronic statements (eStatements) for all of your accounts.  Today, RBC offers eStatements for Visa, Direct Investing, Dominion Securities, Home Equity, Royal Credit Line, Day-to-Day Chequing/Savings and E-savings accounts on the personal side.  If you have not yet converted all of your statements, click here to switch today
