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.
