The strengths of our governance start at the top, with an
independent chairman leading a board composed of independent,
well-informed directors, who give priority to strategic planning,
ensure that standards exist to promote ethical behaviour throughout
the organization, and seek continuous improvement in governance
practices.
These strengths are fostered throughout the organization
by a proactive governance culture that has consistently adopted
industry-leading standards. This culture permeates RBC, from
the office of the non-executive chairman and that of the President
and Chief Executive Officer, on through the business platforms
and subsidiaries of our global network.
The following links provide users with important information
about the Board's governance practices and corporate responsibility and sustainability.
