Key Financial Metrics

- Total Value of Reported Holdings: $248,806,989,000 (reported in thousands).
- Total Number of Holdings Entries: 25,827.
- Number of Included Managers: 26.
Note: The filing text does not provide data on Royal Bank of Canada's corporate revenue, profit margins, debt levels, or liquidity, as this form is strictly for reporting investment manager holdings.
Material Changes

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
This filing contains no management commentary, forward-looking guidance, or risk factors related to the business operations of Royal Bank of Canada. The only risk disclosure present is the standard SEC disclaimer stating that the Commission has not reviewed the information for accuracy or completeness.
Key Facts for Investor Verification
- Verify the total reported value of $248.8 billion represents the aggregate equity holdings of the 27 listed managers, not the total assets of Royal Bank of Canada.
- Confirm the list of 26 included managers to understand the scope of the reported portfolio (e.g., distinguishing between RBC subsidiaries and third-party managers like SEI Investments or Symphonic Financial Advisors).
- Note that this filing does not disclose derivatives, debt securities, or non-equity assets held by the managers.
- Check the filing date of August 12, 2019 to ensure it aligns with the required 45-day window following the June 30 quarter-end.
