About RBC Europe

Royal Bank of Canada is a Canadian financial services company; it is one of the largest banks in Canada and operates internationally, serving more than 16 million customers and employing some 80,000 staff. It is considered a ‘globally important bank’ by the Financial Stability Board.

RBC was founded as the Merchant’s Bank of Halifax in 1864 in Halifax, Nova Scotia to finance the fishing and timber industries, as well as to finance import and export into the Caribbean and Europe. The bank was officially incorporated in 1869 and underwent rapid expansion into other Canadian provinces over the next two decades. It was officially renamed Royal Bank of Canada in 1901 and relocated its headquarters to Montreal soon afterwards. A second headquarters is in Toronto.

RBC Europe operates as a subsidiary of Royal Bank of Canada. Originally named Royal Bank of Canada Europe Limited, the name was changed in August 2011. RBC Europe operates mostly in the United Kingdom.
