Our goal is to help our clients access the debt markets at the overall lowest possible costs by combining our knowledge, expertise, and execution track record in various markets and products.  For our infrastructure clients, we advise them on how to set a capital markets platform which will attract the highest possible rating.

RBC Capital Markets is consistently ranking first in government domestic debt capital markets league tables, was instrumental in developing the Capital Market Platform which now underpins the borrowings of many Canadian infrastructure companies such as airports, and is a leader in University financings.  Finally, our group has consistently played a major advisory role in various high profile privatizations or corporatizations.

The Group has been very successful in leveraging RBC Capital Markets'  international bond business to be the leading dealer for Canadian governments accessing international markets. This "one-stop",  comprehensive service  differentiates our Group from the other Canadian and international dealers and strengthens our overall relationships with these accounts. The result of our leadership in both the domestic and international markets has been recognized in the annual Financial Post League Tables with 1st place rankings for many years.

With regards to infrastructure and privatization opportunities our focused team of experienced professionals,  located across Canada, identify opportunities and work with clients from a variety of areas including transportation, energy projects, water and waste water treatment. Together with our colleagues in the UK and USA, the Group works with governments in the assessment of opportunities, determination of strategic alternatives and the implementation of the chosen course of action.
