About RBC BlueBay

RBC BlueBay is an active investment manager partnering with clients to deliver optimal outcomes across fixed income, equities and alternatives. Our solutions-driven approach means we endeavour to empower our clients with the knowledge they need to help shape their investment decisions. We work and evolve with our clients, creating and customising investment products that meet their needs.

We operate with total transparency throughout the business, providing clients with direct access to our investment teams and fostering a culture that encourages opportunity, resulting in a thoughtful and inclusive organisation that puts people first and delivers for clients.

Responsible investment is embedded across our business. This means it is not just an investment focus but is also ingrained in our client service experience.

Our locations

Our business has a global perspective, with local presence in our key markets. RBC BlueBay has investment teams in the UK, the US, and Hong Kong, and partners with clients across Europe, Asia and the Middle East through 10 regional offices.

Helping clients realise their goals

As an enabler of ideas, we help our clients realise their goals. From this philosophy, ‘ideas happen here’ was adopted. This concept demonstrates our client-focused model through our brand; and our ‘spark of an idea’ campaign illustrates our ability to improve our clients’ experiences through insights.

At RBC BlueBay, we believe the ‘spark of an idea’ shows how we can turn the start of a thought in our clients’ minds into reality.
