Our Approach to Helping Build Vibrant Communities RBCTM is consistently recognized as a leading corporate citizen, thanks to our community and environmental programs and the involvement of our 80,000 employees worldwide. In 2012, we contributed more than $95 million to causes worldwide through donations and sponsorships of community events and organizations.

Donations We are one of Canada’s largest corporate donors, with a tradition of philanthropy dating back to 1891. We have extended that tradition to the other countries where we now operate. We choose our charitable partners and projects carefully, ensure that we monitor how our funding is used and observe both the letter and spirit of all legal requirements.

Sponsorship RBC provides significant support to community organizations and charities through sponsorships, which we negotiate and undertake for strategic marketing purposes that align with our brand and business goals. In 2012, we supported community programs, art, sport and other organizations with more than $31 million in sponsorship funding. While we provide donations to registered charities as gifts, without expectation of economic return, we expect sponsorships to deliver a quantifiable return on our corporate investment.

We support a broad range of causes in virtually all charitable sectors, and provide deep, focused support to key causes that reflect our company’s chosen priorities.

Employee volunteerism RBC employees and retirees are passionate volunteers, and we provide a number of programs that make it easy for them to contribute time and resources. The RBC Employee Volunteer Grants Program supports community involvement. Employees and retirees who volunteer a minimum of 40 hours a year to a registered charity are eligible for a $500 grant to the organization in their honour. Since 1999, we have given 22,314 grants and donated more than $11 million to celebrate our employees’ volunteer efforts.

donations at a glance We strive to help maintain the social fabric of communities today to ensure success for tomorrow in all the markets where we do business.

Our causes As a global company with more than 15 million clients and approximately 80,000 employees, RBC is expected to provide a broad base of support to a wide range of causes and support the volunteer efforts of our employees, both of which we do proudly. We have also chosen to provide deep, significant and concentrated support for specific social and environmental causes that we believe are important but under-recognized and under-funded through donations, sponsorships and thought-leadership initiatives. We have developed a priority project approach to address these issues. Our commitment to wide-ranging causes and our priority projects are described throughout this report. In 2012, RBC made over 9,000 donations, totalling more than $61 million, to 6,000 charities worldwide. We also made additional community investments of more than $3 million through gifts in-kind, employee hours volunteered during work hours and pro bono work, and community investment management.

EDUCATION

Our priority education project RBC believes that investing in education not only helps children, but also strengthens our families, enriches our communities and builds the intellectual capital we need to ensure the future health and prosperity of our country. That’s why we created the RBC After School Project. A good after school program can give a real boost to the skills and knowledge children gain in a formal classroom, bridging the gap between schoolwork and homework, and giving children a chance to take part in wide range of other activities where they can shine and have fun. Since 1999, RBC has provided more than $27 million in grants to 248 community-based after school programs in Canada, helping almost 29,000 children. To be selected for a grant, organizations must offer structured and supervised activities for children between the ages of 6 and 17. The programs must also focus on what RBC calls the “three Ss” — safety, social skills and self-esteem. The grants are used to provide a wide range of activities including computer instruction, sports, literacy tutoring, music and art lessons, nutrition guidance and homework help.

RBC After School Project — 2012 Highlights In 2012, RBC donated more than $2.7 million to 105 community-based organizations in 69 cities across Canada as part of the RBC After School Project, including organizations such as: n  Multicultural Family Resources Society, Alberta,

EDUCATION

Financial Literacy The financial industry needs to make things simpler for its clients in order to improve financial literacy. At RBC, we use plain language and simple illustrations in our communications with clients and provide clear and simple information on fees. RBC has been promoting financial literacy for many years. In 1924, we developed our budget book, the first of many money-management tools that we have created over the years to help clients manage their finances. RBC continues to promote financial literacy — knowledge of credit, debt and savings — to clients, prospective clients and the public at large. Today’s tools include websites, publications and seminars that help clients plan for their financial future. We also support not-for-profit organizations that provide financial education. We delivered a number of financial literacy programs for clients and consumers in 2012. For more information, see our 2012 Corporate Responsibility Report. In addition to our own extensive financial literacy initiatives, in 2012 we invested more than $500,000 to support other initiatives that promote financial literacy around the world. 2012 highlights include: Canada n YourMoney seminars: Twenty-five RBC employees

Employee Volunteer Spotlight “I’ve volunteered on the Board of Governors for the Georgian College of Applied Arts and Technology for six years. Our primary focus is to ensure student success and connectedness to our communities and businesses’ partners, who benefit from the knowledge students gain at the College. Raising funds is key to this success as it has allowed us to improve infrastructure and offer student bursaries and grants. By providing resources, volunteer expertise and time, we can ensure the College remains competitive and offers quality education to the leaders of tomorrow.”

“I have been an after school child care assistant with Collingwood Neighbourhood House for the past seven years, helping with arts and crafts, field trips and sports coaching. Volunteering gives me a sense of purpose. With the RBC Volunteer Grant, the kids benefit twice — I give my time while raising money for the program to take the kids on a field trip or buy supplies. Without RBC’s help, some of the activities may not be possible.”

Health & Wellness

Our priority health and wellness project RBC has a longstanding commitment to health and wellness, and is one of Canada’s largest donors to hospitals and health organizations. In 2007, we decided to bring more focus to our general healthcare giving. We assembled a panel of advisors to help us determine where we could have the most impact, and they recommended we build on our history of support for children’s mental health, an area in which no other major Canadian corporation had focused. As one of Canada’s largest employers, we recognized the potential cost that mental illness had on our company and our economy. So in 2008, we created the RBC Children’s Mental Health Project. The RBC Children’s Mental Health Project funds organizations and programs that reduce stigma, provide early intervention and increase awareness about this issue. To date, RBC has donated more than $16 million to nearly 200 community-based and hospital children’s mental health programs across Canada.

“Clovernook Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired empowers people who are blind and visually impaired to be active participants in their communities.

than 0.5 per cent of the organization’s operating budget. n For capital campaign requests, we normally fund

between 0.5 per cent and 1.5 per cent of the private sector campaign goal — this means your campaign goal minus any government support you are receiving. However, in no case will our total contribution exceed $2 million. n For requests that pertain to a specific project or

program that is strategically aligned with one or more of RBC’s funding priorities, we will consider funding up to 100 per cent of the specific project or program budget, provided that funding is for a defined period and the charity agrees to make efforts to diversify funding sources (as appropriate). n If you are an organization that has both a national

office and regional chapters, we consider the funding you receive at both levels when determining our level of support.

Sponsorships RBC also provides significant support to community organizations and charities through sponsorships. Sponsorships are negotiated and undertaken for strategic marketing purposes that align with our brand and business goals, and are expected to deliver a quantifiable return on investment while benefiting organizations and causes that provide social or environmental benefit. Generally, we pursue sponsorship opportunities that are important for our clients, our communities and our businesses.

We look for sponsorship opportunities that maximize marketing potential, target various RBC audiences (including employees, clients, prospects and communities), encourage co-operation among people and organizations (such as co-sponsorships) and show innovation and creativity.

Sponsorship proposal tips n Maximize

marketing potential: The more marketing opportunities you identify, the more attractive your proposal becomes. Look for maximum marketing potential, media extensions, community-relations activities and client development opportunities.

n Identify opportunities: Your proposal should show

clear opportunities to promote RBC, as well as the products and services of our member companies, to your targeted audience(s). Identify opportunities that target employees, clients, prospects, communities and other audiences. n Think

beyond your own organization: Outside your organization, there may be some marketing opportunities that we could mutually explore. Demonstrate your imagination and flexibility by enhancing your programs through cooperative local events or package offerings.

n Involve others: Your proposal should broaden the

promotional playing field. Involve co-sponsors, suppliers and affiliates in active and inventive cross-promotions. In a nutshell, we’re looking for breakthrough ideas that create new opportunities for us and for you. We receive hundreds of sponsorship proposals every week, and most of these offer us a standard package including: − Complimentary tickets − Sponsor mention on promotional materials − Program advertising and signage To learn more about RBC sponsorships and our involvement in the community, visit rbc.com/sponsorship.

HOW WE GIVE

How we Give Donations governance

Demonstrated impact

The member companies of RBC administer charitable donations in Canada through RBC Foundation. Our donations policy covers our guidelines and strategy, and is reviewed by the Corporate Governance and Public Policy Committee of the Board of Directors. RBC Foundation has its own Board of Directors, comprising the heads of our businesses. The executive director of the Foundation is RBC’s vice president, corporate citizenship. The Board sets policy and approves or ratifies all donations made by units globally. The Foundation is supported by regional and business-specific donations managers around the world.

RBC requires, for donations over $10,000, that our charitable partners demonstrate the social or environmental impact of our contribution and provide details about the successes and challenges they encounter during the time they receive funding. Recognizing the effort that is needed to report the good works our charitable partners do with our funding, RBC has established a set of tiered guidelines for reporting.

Due diligence RBC is dedicated to working with charitable organizations that share our goal to help make a difference in local communities and regions where we do business, and demonstrate fiscal prudence and good governance practices. We also encourage synergies between organizations and diversified funding structures. Our goal is to ensure that our charitable partners have sustainable sources of funding and use their donors’ funds responsibly. In 2012, RBC approved over 9,000 donations to charitable groups in communities across North America. Over 80 per cent of these donations were under $20,000, providing a broad base of support. Our grant-makers follow a rigorous process when evaluating proposals to ensure our funds are allocated with the utmost care and responsibility. We look at whether the charity has a wide range of support and assess its ability to deliver programs. We also assess the charity’s fiscal management and governance practices, and we require that all charities requesting donations over $5,000 provide audited financial statements.
