Executive Summary
Royal Bank of Canada is one of the oldest and largest banks in Canada. Its operations are mostly
restricted towards North America and the Caribbean Islands. RBC is a very conservative
financial institution. It stood strong during the subprime crisis in the USA. In 2012 it has been
rated as the safest bank by Moody’s.
South Africa provides huge potential for growth. It is one of the largest economies of Africa and
has grown at a GDP rate of 7% over past 5 years. Most of the world has taken notice of the
potential that South Africa holds and many firms have, especially the automobile sector has set
its operations there.
RBC will be able to maximize its profits and increase its market share if it moves in to South
Africa. It will also be able to use South Africa as a test market to explore other African markets.
Taking into consideration the long term objectives of RBC I recommend moving in to South Africa through acquisition strategy

LEADERSHIP TEAM
The thinking tank of the bank is fuelled by prudent bankers who have illustrious years of
experience. The leadership team has served the bank in various verticals in different capacities.

Gordon Nixon was appointed as the President and CEO of RBC on April 1, 2001. He has been a
transformational leader, having said so in 2004; he initiated a major change in the organization
structure and management. The restructuring process was undertaken to focus the resources of
RBC towards only one goal i.e. customer satisfaction. The change was symbolically called as
“Client First”. Under the leadership of Mr. Nixon RBC has delivered one of the best shareholder
returns amongst the big five banks of Canada. RBC was able to cruise through the financial crisis
of 2000 because of Mr. Nixon’s unconventional approach towards banking. Mr. Nixon was
awarded the Order of Ontario in 2007. He was also appointed a Member of the Order of Canada
in 2010.
Chief Financial Officer and Chief Administrative Officer
Janice Fukakusa is the CFO and CAO of RBC. She is one of the key members of RBC’s Group
Fukakusa has held key positions in all the businesses of the bank since joining them in 1985. Ms.
Fukakusa has earned the designation of FCA from the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
Ontario and holds a MBA from Schulich School of Buisness.

SUB-SAHARAN MARKET
Africa’s economic growth has accelerated over the last five years. The robust growth has
attracted attention of global executives and investors as the rate of return on foreign investment
is higher in Africa than in any other developing regions. The major drivers of the African
economy have been countries like South Africa, Nigeria and Ghana, which have contributed
approximately 70% to the real GDP of the continent. The growth figures of the three African
countries put together are higher than their Asian counterparts (India & China).
TARGET MARKET: SOUTH AFRICA
Business Destination
South Africa is referred as the business gateway of Africa. The government policies and the
infrastructure complemented by the consumer spending have made South Africa a quintessential
business hub. The economy is driven through significant contribution made by the mining,
services and manufacturing sector. The services sector contributes approximately 60% to its
GDP, followed by mining and manufacturing at 20% and 15% respectively. Banking and
Financial Sector is the seventh most important sector (see Appendix A) which contributes 4.9%
to its GDP and has grown at an average rate of 3.1% per annum. Since South Africa is a
developing economy the exposure of the Banking and Financial sector towards the GDP shows
ample scope of growth.
Economic Outlook
South Africa is quoted as the economic giant of the sub-Saharan economy. Over the last decade
South African economy has consistently grown at an average GDP of 3.6 % (see Appendix B).
The average projected growth rate (GDP) over the next five years is 4.1% (see Appendix C).
South Africa has managed to maintain its inflation at 5.6% in 2012 and as the forecasted data
suggests the Central Bank of South Africa will maintain the inflation around the 5% mark for the
next five years (see Appendix D). The maintenance of inflation just below the upper inflation
band of 6% portrays healthy signs for the economy as it promotes consumer spending driven
economy.
12 | P a g e
Political Scenario
Post-apartheid the political situation in South Africa has stabilized and consolidated. South
Africa has a multi-party democratic system. The coalition government is led by President Jacob
Zuma of African National Congress (ANC) party. ANC’s economic resources and liberation
credentials make it difficult for the opposition parties to break into electoral politics. President
Jacob Zuma was under pressure recently to declare a populous budget which would have
increased government’s expenditure; however his party choose to announce a budget which
promotes business and trade in South Africa. The current political leadership is favourable for
the corporates and people both. The reform work undertaken by the current leadership for the
people has made them popular and the chances of President Jacob Zuma being re-elected in 2014
elections is bright.
Business Infrastructure
South Africa has one of the best business environments in the African region. International
Finance Corporation has awarded 53rd rank to South Africa amongst 185 countries in the overall
ease of doing business rankings. South Africa is very well connected to all the major domestic
cities through road and rail. The fixed land line and mobile connectivity is dense within South
Africa. The broadband subscription has significantly in South Africa over the last three years;
however it still remains expensive as compared to other developing economies. The government
in April 2013 had called for new internet service providers to bid for licence in order to tackle
expensive internet issue.
Legal Framework
South Africa was formerly a British colony; hence it has adopted the British legal system. The
judiciary system has been effective in resolving disputes and enforcing contracts. Intellectual
Property Rights law, labour and key commerce legislations are well-developed. South Africa is a
member of WTO and has signed the TRIPS agreement for protection of intellectual property
rights. Hence any disputes related to intellectual property is reported and resolved in the
international forum.
13 | P a g e
Foreign Investment Policy and Corporate Tax Structure
South Africa`s monetary policies are structured to attract foreign direct investment. 100%
foreign ownership is permitted in South Africa and the capital repatriation policies are liberal.
No prior approval is required from the government for foreign investment. The South African
Companies Act of 1973 provides guidelines for setting up foreign companies in South Africa.
South Africa`s tax regime is foreign investor friendly. If the foreign investments are routed
through the Strategic Industrial Project (SIP) allowances of 50% or 100% are available. The tax
rate for foreign companies is 34%.
15 | P a g e
Market Entry Strategy
Royal Bank of Canada will be offering trade and finance products to the small and medium
domestic and international traders. I recommend RBC to enter the South African market by
acquiring a non-banking financial institution (NBFI). RBC will be able to provide trade and
finance services under the South African law, by holding a non-banking licence.
Rationale for the Proposed Strategy
ϒ South Africa allows 100% foreign direct investment which does not require prior
approval from the government.
ϒ Local presence in the South African market will increase consumer confidence, thereby
attracting more business.
ϒ Through this strategy RBC will get access to the large customer base of the acquired
company.
ϒ RBC will also get access to the immovable assets of the acquired company.
ϒ The trained pool of human resource of the acquired company will enable RBC to save on
the recruitment and training cost.
Marketing Strategy
RBC structures its marketing strategy keeping in view that the customer is the king of the
market. RBC understands that building long term relationship with the customer through prompt
and quality service is valuable and rewarding. The major difference between the marketing
strategy adopted by RBC and its competitors is that RBC concentrates on creating value for the
customer, whereas the competition merely focuses in selling the service.
Product
RBC has engineered the products keeping in view the business requirements of its consumers.
The trade finance products offered are stated as under:-
16 | P a g e
ϒ Pre-Shipment Credit
This product will enable the exporters to meet their working capital requirements from
the date of manufacturing the product till the shipping of the product. The loan will be
provided for a maximum period of 180 days at prime lending rate.
ϒ Post-Shipment Credit
The pre-shipment credit can be converted to post shipment credit for a maximum period
of 270 days at prime lending rate plus 1%. This loan will allow the exporter to meet their
operating expenses from the date of shipment till they receive their payment.
ϒ Letter of Credit
Import and export letter of credit will be provided to the customer at a fixed fee which
will be 0.5% of the letter of credit amount. The consumer will be able to route the
documents, receive or make payment and get the document scrutinized under the letter of
credit.
ϒ Documentary Collection
This product will enable routing of payment and documents through the bank to the
foreign bank or to the foreign trader. The fee charged for this service is US$ 5 per
transaction.
Product Modification
• The interest rate at which credit will be extended to the market will be decided by the
benchmark interest rate set by the Central Bank of South Africa.
• The maximum credit period that can be given to the customer will be governed by the
policies set by the Central Bank of South Africa.
Product Differentiation
• The trade products provided to the customer will be similar in nature to the competition;
however the main differentiating factor is the quality of service provided to the customer.
17 | P a g e
RBC is reputed in the North American market for the prompt and efficient customer
service provided to the customer.
• The trade products will be made available to the customer through online internet
banking, this a special feature of RBC`s trade products. The competition in South Africa
has not yet started offering trade products online.
Price
RBC will deploy value added pricing in the South African market. The customer will be given
the option of paying extra for the value added services availed. The competition currently uses
static pricing method. The value added pricing will be expensive than the competition, however
the customer takes a call for what services he wants to pay. The pay as per your use is the value
statement supporting this pricing strategy.
RBC uses full cost pricing method in order to arrive at the cost of the product. All the direct and
indirect costs and variable and fixed costs are taken into consideration from conceptualizing step
to finally making the product available to the customer. This enables RBC to fully recover the
cost and add its profit margin for the selling price.
Place
Documentary Collection (Import Documents)
The documents received from the overseas party is informed to the customer over a phone call
by the trade desk officer, then depending on the terms of payment stated on the bill of exchange
the documents are handed over to the customer via local courier service or the customer receives
it when he visits the branch.
Letter of Credit (Export LC)
If an export LC is received from the foreign bank, the same is informed by the trade desk officer
over a phone call and simultaneously a soft copy of LC is emailed to the customer with a hard
copy through the local courier services.
18 | P a g e
Online Trade Customers
The internet service must be of high speed in order to facilitate quality service to the online trade
customers.
Promotion
Print Media must be used to in order to promote RBC`s entry in the South African market. A
dinner night for the existing customers of the company acquired by RBC must be arranged, to
promote its products. The dinner invite must state that the existing customers are allowed to get
their business friends as well. This will enable promoting the bank to new prospective customer.
The promotion activity may be outsourced to an advertisement company specialized in arranging
advertisement campaign for companies dealing in financial and trade services.
People
Durban and Cape Town are the port towns of South Africa. The import export trade takes place
though these ports, hence many import export companies are set across this region. RBC is
targeting these customers for its trade and finance services. The South Africa`s trade and finance
market is valued at USD 1.2 billion as quoted by Trade Finance Magazine in 2013.
After Sales Service
The relationship management team of the bank provides after sales service to the customer. In
the banking industry after sales service is more like cross selling a different banking product at
reduced price to the customer for their loyalty. The loyalty benefits will be provided to the
customer till the time it is actively using the banking services.

Operations Overview
Software
• Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication(SWIFT)
It is a platform used by all the banks across the globe for communication and transferring
of funds.
• Nostro A/c
It is a dollar a/c maintained by a South African with an American bank.
• Vostro A/c
It is a South African Rand (currency) A/c maintained by a foreign bank with a bank
operating in South Africa
Each and every trade finance products has its unique process. It goes through various check
points where in the documents are first scrutinized to see whether it meets the international trade
rules and then it is compared with the rules of the customers. If the documents comply with both
international and local rules and regulations, the document is cleared for payment by the
importer.
Sample Working of a Letter of Credit (LC) (see Appendix E)
• The importer (applicant) visits his bank (issuing bank) for the issuance of letter of credit
based on the order confirmation received from the exporter (beneficiary).
• The issuing bank issues the LC in favour of the beneficiary and sends the LC to the
exporter’s bank (negotiating bank) via the SWIFT system.
• The negotiating bank informs the beneficiary regarding the receipt of LC.
• The beneficiary ships the goods and sends the documents via negotiating bank to the
issuing bank
21 | P a g e
• The issuing bank scrutinizes the documents to comply with the terms and conditions of
the LC and informs the applicant about receiving of documents
• The applicant agrees to release the documents on immediate payment; concurrently
issuing bank agrees to make the payment to the negotiating bank on behalf of the
applicant.
• The payment is effected by the issuing bank to the negotiating bank via SWIFT.
• The negotiating bank pays the beneficiary by crediting his a/c and deducting the charges
for the entire transaction.

Financial Performance
RBC posted strong results for the second quarter ended 30th April 2013. Its net income increased
by 26% from the first quarter. Its current net income stands at CAD 1,936 million. The stock
price of RBC on the Toronto Stock Exchange is CAD 65.11 as on 29th July 2013. RBC has been
posting good results for the past five years (see Appendix E,F & G). The earnings per share is
CAD 5.40. The stock prices have gone up steadily since July 2012 when it was trading at CAD
50.50
Sourcing of Funds for Acquisition in South Africa
RBC could raise funds in the following way:
• 30% of the capital can be raised through follow up public offer (FPO)
• 30% of the capital can be invested from its profits. As of 2012 its cash flow showed a
balance of CAD 1,239 million
• 10% can be raised through issue of preferential shares
• 20% can be raised through providing a stake to the Non-banking financial institution that
the bank is acquiring in South Africa.
Risks Associated with the Acquisition
• The government may come up with the policy which may make the deal impossible. In
such scenario political risk insurance can be availed from EDC.
• Currency Fluctuation risk may make the deal expensive for RBC. This risk can be
mitigated by hedging the funds.
25 | P a g e
CONCLUSION
RBC is one of the largest banks of Canada. Since the 1900’s the Canadian banks have
concentrated on the North American and the Caribbean markets only. The emerging economies
like South Africa, Brazil, India, Thailand and Russia are prospective markets for financial
institutions. The financial system in the emerging economies is evolving and there is a need for
financial enterprises to boost their growth through structured financing.
South Africa is one of the largest economies of Africa; it will also provide RBC an opportunity
to enter other emerging African economies like Nigeria and Ghana. RBC could use South Africa
as a test market to enter the neighbouring African countries.
The major risk involved in South Africa is the political risk. President Zuma has led a campaign
to empower the Black community, which has not been viewed very positively by the gatekeepers
of the world. The regional politics is detrimental to the growth of South Africa. However these
problems are common with most of the emerging world.
Recommendation
I suggest RBC to undertake a detailed research of the competition in the South African market. A
detailed research will assist RBC to understand the driving force of the financial sector. The
report will also flash data about the weak financial institutions, which RBC can decide to acquire
in order to enter the South African market.
