The strengths of RBC's 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 Financial Group, from the office of the non-executive chairman and that of
the Chief Executive Officer, on through the business platforms and subsidiaries
of RBC's global network. The following links provide users with important
information about RBC's practices relating to governance issues and corporate
responsibility and sustainability. Governance Resources
