                    ROYAL BANK OF CANADA TO DELIST ITS SHARES
                          FROM THE LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE

Toronto, June 19, 2001 - Royal Bank of Canada (TSE, NYSE: RY) today announced
that it has given notice to delist its common shares from the London Stock
Exchange (LSE). The delisting is to take effect at 8 a.m. on July 18, 2001.

The decision to delist from the LSE was based on the low trading volumes on this
exchange, which did not justify the costs and effort entailed with maintaining
the listing. The common shares of the Bank will continue to be listed on The
Toronto Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange and the Swiss Exchange,
which provide ongoing liquidity to Royal Bank shareholders.
