RBC Capital Trust -- Moody's affirms Royal Bank of Canada's ratings; outlook negative

Toronto, July 19, 2016 -- Moody's Investors Service today affirmed all of Royal Bank of Canada (RBC, Aa3/Aa3 negative, a2) ratings, including the long-term debt and deposit ratings at Aa3, its BCA at a2, and all other related ratings for debt classes and its affiliates at their current levels. The outlook remains negative for the supported senior debt and uninsured deposit ratings of the bank.
