Mendocino County to Divest From Royal Bank of Canada Due to Conflicting Philosphies

Mendocino County has divested $3 million from the Royal Bank of Canada following a request from the group Mendocino County for Ethical Investing. According to Mendocino Public Broadcasting, the group presented evidence that the Royal Bank of Canada is a significant investor in industries that contribute to climate change and global conflict, which is counter to the county’s values and investment policies.
