What was done
RBC rolled its internal agentic platform, RBC Assist, out to employees. CEO Dave McKay described reviewing an AI-generated briefing every morning on the economy, markets, consumer behaviour, risk and mortgage data, and questioning it.
Outcome
McKay said a report that used to take a week now arrives in about four seconds. RBC expects $700M–$1B in enterprise value from AI by 2027 (company target, not a measured result).

Each morning, brief me in under one page: key moves in Canadian rates, markets and housing overnight; anything affecting our top risks; and three questions I should ask my team today. Cite the source for each item.
