Royal Bank of Canada said on October 28 that it will block third-party personal AI agents from directly accessing authenticated RBC digital properties, including online banking. In its RBC Thought Leadership explanation, the bank cited security and privacy risks as autonomous tools gain the ability to act on behalf of customers.

Security Takes Priority Over Automation

The restriction is not a general retreat from artificial intelligence. Customers can continue to use RBC's official website and mobile app, the bank's own digital tools and customer service channels. RBC also points to its Digital Banking Security Guarantee for eligible unauthorized transactions, subject to its conditions and customer responsibilities.

The policy places RBC among Canadian banks limiting direct access by outside agents. Global News reported that TD and RBC are blocking third-party agents, while other major lenders have taken different steps to restrict or assess the technology. For investors, the debate centers on authorization, liability and the balance between automation and control.
