on Business placed RBC Financial Group fifth

stock option programs. |

In 2004, RBC Financial Group
was named “ Canada’s

an annual survey conducted by Ipsos
Reid for KPMG. This marks the third
consecutive year that we have received
this honour, and the fifth time
in the last 10 years. The survey
asked 263 of Canada’s leading
CEOs to name the companies they
most respected. For the 10th consecutive
year, we were also named the top
corporation in the category of “Corporate
Social Responsibility” recognizing
our charitable giving, sponsorships
and employee volunteerism. |
