Companies in the news:
Royal Bank of Canada (TSX:RY). Up $1.29, or 1.01 per cent, to $128.55. Data from an environmental group shows RBC's fossil fuel expansion-related funding jumped by almost half last year to its highest level since the Paris climate agreement was reached in 2015. Stand.earth said the bank's US$10.8 billion in funding last year to expansion projects and companies working to increase oil and gas production represents a 45 per cent rise from 2021, and that it goes against both the conclusions of the latest UN climate report and RBC's own climate commitments. RBC said in its latest climate report out earlier in March that its lending and financed emissions are reflective of Canada's economy, and that a balanced approach is needed for an orderly and inclusive energy transition.
Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers Inc. (TSX:RBA). Up nine cents, or 0.12 per cent, to $72.97. Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers Inc. announced after the bell that it has completed its acquisition of U.S. company IAA Inc. The deal was a contentious one with shareholders split on whether the acquisition was worth the potential risk to Ritchie Bros.
