2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of

the securities in its portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable

capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of

the securities in its portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable

capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of

the securities in its portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable

capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

daily average net assets during the period.

3 Invest series and Series 2 commenced operations on November 7, 2014.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of

the securities in its portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable

capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all

of the securities in its portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving

taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

1 The management expense ratio ("MER") is based on total expenses, including pro-rata share of operating expenses of the underlying fund, for the stated period and is expressed as an annualized percentage of

daily average net assets during the period.

3 Invest series commenced operations on November 7, 2014.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all

of the securities in its portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving

taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of

the securities in its portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable

capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

1 The management expense ratio ("MER") is based on total expenses, including pro-rata share of operating expenses of the underlying fund, for the stated period and is expressed as an annualized percentage of

daily average net assets during the period.

3 Invest series commenced operations on November 7, 2014.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of

the securities in its portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable

capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

1 The management expense ratio ("MER") is based on total expenses, including pro-rata share of operating expenses of the underlying fund, for the stated period and is expressed as an annualized percentage of

daily average net assets during the period.

3 Invest series commenced operations on November 7, 2014.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of

the securities in its portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable

capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of the securities

in its portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year.

There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

1 The management expense ratio ("MER") is based on total expenses, including pro-rata share of operating expenses of the underlying fund, for the stated period and is expressed as an annualized percentage of

daily average net assets during the period.

3 Invest series, Series 1 and Series 2 commenced operations on May 7, 2018.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of

the securities in its portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable

capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

daily average net assets during the period.

3 Invest series commenced operations on November 7, 2014.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio of the

year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between

a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

1 The management expense ratio ("MER") is based on total expenses, including pro-rata share of operating expenses of the underlying fund, for the stated period and is expressed as an annualized percentage of

daily average net assets during the period.

3 Invest series commenced operations on November 7, 2014.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of the securities in its

portfolio of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not

necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

2 The underlying fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the fund's portfolio advisor manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio of the

year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between

a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

1. THE FUNDS

RBC Guaranteed Investment Funds (“GIF”) and RBC Guaranteed Investment Portfolios (“GIP”), together referred to as RBC Guaranteed Investment Funds, are segregated funds comprised of the following funds and portfolios: RBC Guaranteed Investment Funds: RBC Canadian Money Market GIF RBC Canadian Short-Term Income GIF RBC Bond GIF RBC PH&N Total Return Bond GIF RBC Global Bond GIF RBC High Yield Bond GIF RBC Balanced GIF RBC PH&N Monthly Income GIF RBC Global Balanced GIF RBC Canadian Dividend GIF RBC Canadian Equity GIF RBC O'Shaughnessy All Canadian Equity GIF RBC PH&N Canadian Income GIF RBC North American Value GIF RBC North American Growth GIF RBC U.S. Dividend GIF RBC U.S. Equity GIF RBC O'Shaughnessy U.S. Value GIF RBC Global Dividend Growth GIF RBC O'Shaughnessy International Equity GIF RBC BlueBay Global Convertible Bond GIF RBC Balanced Growth and Income GIF RBC Global Equity GIF RBC Emerging Markets Dividend GIF RBC Conservative Growth and Income Fund GIF RBC Global Growth and Income Fund GIF (introduced May 7, 2018) RBC Guaranteed Investment Portfolios: RBC Select Conservative GIP RBC Select Balanced GIP RBC Select Growth GIP RBC Select Aggressive Growth GIP

Both the RBC Guaranteed Investment Funds and RBC Guaranteed Investment Portfolios are referred to in these financial statements as collectively the “Funds” and individually the “Fund”. RBC Life Insurance Company, a related party, is the fund manager (the “Manager”) and sole issuer of the individual insurance contracts for each Fund, and is guarantor of the guarantee provisions contained in these contracts. The Funds invest in underlying mutual funds managed by RBC Global Asset Management Inc. (“RBC GAM”). Both, RBC Life Insurance Company and RBC GAM are wholly owned subsidiaries of Royal Bank of Canada (“RBC”). The Manager’s registered office is located at 6880 Financial Dr., Mississauga, Ontario L5N 7Y5, Canada. Some of the Funds may invest in units of only one underlying mutual fund managed by RBC GAM, while others, referred to in these financial statements as RBC Guaranteed Investment Portfolios, may invest in units of underlying portfolios, which invest in multiple underlying mutual funds, also managed by RBC GAM. The assets of each of the Funds are owned by RBC Life Insurance Company and are segregated from RBC Life Insurance Company’s other assets. The Funds are not separate legal entities, but are separate reporting entities.

2. FINANCIAL YEAR

The information provided in these financial statements and notes thereto is as at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, as applicable, and for the 6-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, as applicable, except for Funds or series established during either period, in which case the information for the Fund, or series, is provided for the period from the commencement date as described in the footnotes to the Financial Highlights of the Fund.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The Canadian dollar is the functional and presentation currency of the Funds.

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies:

a) Adoption of new accounting standards

Effective January 1, 2018, the Funds retrospectively without restatement adopted IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”). The new standard requires financial assets to be either carried at amortized cost, or at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in profit and loss (“FVTPL”) or in other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”) based on the Funds’ business model for managing financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets.

The Funds manage their investments in financial assets with the objective of realizing cash flows through both the sale of the assets and income generated from those assets. The Portfolio Managers make decisions based on the assets’ fair values and manage the assets to realize those fair values. Upon transition to IFRS 9, the Funds’ financial assets and financial liabilities previously designated as FVTPL under IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (“IAS 39”) continue to be classified as FVTPL under IFRS 9. There were no changes in the measurement attributes for any of the financial assets and financial liabilities upon transition to IFRS 9.

b) Classification and Measurement of Financial Assets, Liabilities and Derivatives

Each of the Funds classify their investment portfolio based on the business model for managing the portfolio and the contractual cash flow characteristics. The investment portfolio of financial assets and liabilities is managed and performance is evaluated on a fair value basis. The contractual cash flows of the Funds’ debt securities that are solely principal and interest are neither held for the purpose of collecting contractual cash flows nor held both for collecting contractual cash flows for sale. The collection of contractual cash flows is only incidental to achieving the Funds’ business model objectives. Consequently, all investments are measured at FVTPL. Derivative assets and liabilities are also measured at FVTPL. The Funds’ obligation for net assets attributable to holders of redeemable units represents a financial liability and is measured at the redemption amount, which approximates fair value as of the reporting date. All other financial assets and liabilities are measured at amortized cost.

c) Income recognition

Distributions from investments are recorded when declared by the underlying mutual fund. On the statements of comprehensive income, “Distribution from underlying funds” includes income distributions and any capital gain distributions paid by underlying funds.

d) Net assets attributable to contractholders per unit

Net assets attributable to contractholders per unit is computed by dividing the net assets attributable to a series of units on a business day by the total number of units of the series outstanding on that day.

e) Net income (loss) attributable to contractholders per unit

Net income attributable to contractholders per unit in the Statements of Comprehensive Income represents the increase (decrease) in net assets from operations attributable to the series for the year, divided by the weighted average number of units outstanding at the end of the year.

f) Use of estimates

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS, and include estimates and assumptions by management that affects the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

g) Income taxes

Each Fund is deemed to be an inter-vivos trust under the provisions of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and is deemed to have allocated its income to the contract holders. Each Fund’s net capital gains (losses) are deemed to be those of the contract holders. Accordingly, each Fund is not subject to income tax on its net income, including net realized capital gains for the year.

A fund may elect each year to realize capital gain (loss) for the taxation year, to optimize the allocation of capital gain/(loss) between redeeming and continuing contractholders.

RBC GUARANTEED INVESTMENT FUNDS Page 69 of 74

h) Unconsolidated Structured Entities

The funds may invest in other Funds and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) managed by the manager or affiliate of the manager (“sponsored funds”) and may invest in other funds and ETFs managed by unaffiliated entities (“unsponsored funds”); collectively, “underlying funds.” The underlying funds are determined to be unconsolidated structured entities, as decision making in the underlying fund is not governed by the voting rights or other similar rights held by the Fund. The investments in underlying funds are subject to the terms and conditions of the offering documents of the respective underlying funds and are susceptible to market price risk arising from uncertainties about future values of those underlying funds. The underlying funds’ objectives are generally to achieve long-term capital appreciation and/or current income by investing in a portfolio of securities and other funds in line with each of their documented investment strategies. The underlying funds apply various investment strategies to accomplish their respective investment objectives. The underlying funds finance their operations by issuing redeemable units which are puttable at the unitholder’s option, and entitle the unitholder to a proportional stake in the respective underlying funds’ NAV. The Funds do not consolidate their investment in underlying funds but account for these investments at fair value. The manager has determined that the Funds are investment entities in accordance with IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, since the funds meet the following criteria: (i) The Funds obtain capital from one or more investors for the purpose of providing those investors with investment management services, (ii) The Funds commit to their investors that their business purpose is to invest funds solely for the returns from capital appreciation, investment income, or both, and (iii)The Funds measure and evaluate the performance of substantially all of their investments on a fair value basis. Therefore, the fair value of investments in the underlying funds is included in the Schedule of Investment Portfolio and included in “Investments at fair value” in the Funds’ Statements of Financial Position. The change in fair value of the investment held in the underlying funds is included in “Change in unrealized gain (loss) on investments” in the Statements of Comprehensive Income.

i) Current assets and Current liabilities

The Funds’ Statements of Financial Position is presented broadly in order of liquidity.

4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS RISK

The Funds may be exposed to a variety of financial risks. Each of the Fund’s exposures to financial risks is concentrated in its investment holdings. The Schedule of Invested Assets on each Fund’s supplementary information, disclosed alongside the financial statements, presents the details of units held by each Fund as at June 30,2019 and December 31,2018 and groups the underlying mutual funds by their nature. The Funds do not manage their underlying mutual funds and therefore the detailed quantitative and qualitative risk disclosures, as required by IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, of the underlying mutual funds have not been disclosed. For further information on the financial instruments risk of the underlying mutual fund and the sensitivity to price changes please refer to the financial statements of the underlying mutual funds which are filed on SEDAR. Each of the Fund’s risk management practice includes the monitoring of compliance to investment guidelines. The Fund Manager manages the potential effects of these financial risks on the Funds’ performance by employing and overseeing professional and experienced portfolio advisors that regularly monitor the Funds’ positions, market events and diversify investment portfolios within the constraints of the investment guidelines. a) Credit risk

Credit risk is the possibility that a borrower, or the counterparty to a derivatives contract, repurchase agreement or reverse repurchase agreement, is unable or unwilling to repay the loan or obligation, either on time or at all. Companies and governments that borrow money, and the debt securities they issue, are rated by specialized rating agencies. Debt securities issued by companies or governments in emerging markets often have higher credit risk (lower rated debt), while debt securities issued by well-established companies or by governments of developed countries tend to have lower credit risk (higher rated debt). A downgrade in an issuer’s credit rating or other adverse news regarding an issuer can reduce a security’s fair value. Lower rated and unrated debt instruments generally offer a better return than higher grade debt instruments, but have the potential for substantial loss. Funds that invest in companies or markets with higher credit risk tend to be more volatile in the short term. However, they may offer the potential of higher returns over the long term. Credit risk arises when an underlying mutual fund invests in fixed income securities. Credit risk is considered as part of the investment decision making process.

For the years ended June 30, 2019 and December 31,2018, the underlying mutual funds only bought and sold investments through brokers which are RBC approved counterparties, thus minimizing the risk of default during settlement.

b) Currency risk

Most underlying mutual funds are valued in Canadian dollars. However, underlying mutual funds that purchase foreign securities may be required to pay for such securities using a foreign currency and receive a foreign currency when they sell them. As a result, changes in the value of the Canadian dollar compared to foreign currencies will affect the value of any foreign securities. For example, if the Canadian dollar rises relative to a foreign currency (like the U.S. dollar or the Euro), the Canadian dollar value of an investment denominated in that foreign currency may decline. This decline may reduce, or even eliminate, any return the Fund has earned on the security. On the other hand, a Fund may also benefit from changes in exchange rates. Currency exposure may increase the volatility of foreign investments relative to Canadian investments. Some underlying mutual funds may hedge (protect against) the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates of the underlying assets of the Fund.

Page 70: Financial Statements of · Realized gain on sale of investments--Sales and redemption of units Change in unrealized gain/loss of investments-- Invest Series ... SURE Trust 2.050%

RBC GUARANTEED INVESTMENT FUNDS Page 70 of 74

During the period ended June 30, 2019 and year ended December 31, 2018, as the Funds only invested in Canadian denominated underlying mutual funds, the Funds do not have a direct currency risk exposure.

c) Interest rate risk

If a Fund invests primarily in bonds and other fixed-income securities, the biggest influence on the Fund’s value will be changes in the general level of interest rates. If interest rates fall, the value of the Fund’s units will tend to rise. If interest rates rise, the value of the Fund’s units will tend to fall. Short-term interest rates can have a different influence on a Fund’s value than long-term interest rates. If a Fund invests primarily in bonds and other fixed-income securities with longer-term maturities, the biggest influence on the Fund’s value will be changes in the general level of long-term interest rates. If a Fund invests primarily in bonds and other fixed-income securities with shorter-term maturities, the biggest influence on the Fund’s value will be changes in the general level of shorter-term interest rates. Investors seeking current income should be aware that the level of interest income from a money market fund will fluctuate as short-term interest rates vary.

Interest rate risk arises when the underlying mutual fund invests in interest bearing financial instruments such as a bond. The underlying mutual fund is exposed to the risk that the value of such financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in the prevailing levels of market interest rates. In general, as interest rates rise, the price of a fixed rate bond will fall, and vice versa.

d) Liquidity risk

Liquidity refers to the speed and ease with which an asset can be sold and converted into cash. Most securities owned by an underlying mutual fund can be sold easily and at a fair price. In highly volatile markets, such as in periods of sudden interest rate changes, certain securities may become less liquid, which means they cannot be sold as quickly or easily. Some securities may be illiquid because of legal restrictions, the nature of the investment, or because of features like guarantees. Another reason for illiquidity is a lack of buyers interested in a particular security or market. Difficulty in selling securities may result in a loss or reduced return for a Fund.

As at June 30, 2019 and December 31,2018, the Funds’ assets were comprised of units of underlying mutual funds which can be redeemed upon request from the issuer on a valuation date. A valuation date occurs every day that the principal exchange is open for trading and a value is available for the assets of the relevant fund. The Toronto Stock Exchange currently is the principal exchange used for purposes of determining the valuation dates.

e) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the value of investments will fluctuate as a result of changes in market condition. Several factors can influence market trends, such as economic developments, changes in interest rates, political changes, and catastrophic events. As at June 30, 2019 and December 31,2018, the Funds are exposed to the market risk of the underlying mutual funds.

5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Funds use a fund-of-fund structure to invest in underlying mutual funds exclusively managed by RBC GAM. As part of the underlying mutual fund selection process for the Funds, the existing mutual funds line-up are reviewed at least annually by RBC Life Insurance Company to identify any product gaps that result from the changing needs of the market and distribution partners.

The screening criteria may include qualitative as well as quantitative measures of performance and must satisfy internal risk management standards.

Ongoing monitoring throughout the year by the Funds’ management includes monitoring any organizational or fund changes announced by underlying mutual fund managers or news items that may affect organizational stability or Funds performance as well as analysis on the Funds’ rate of return to verify that it is appropriate compared to the underlying mutual fund or fund’s benchmark.

Included in the ongoing due diligence process, managers of the underlying mutual funds are required to verify that the Funds have adhered to the Funds’ Investment Policies and that the underlying mutual funds are managed in accordance with their investment objectives and strategies. The underlying mutual funds could be exposed to specific risks which may primarily arise because the value of the investments are affected by changes in the local and global economies including interest rates, foreign exchange rates, financial markets and company-specific news. The underlying mutual funds’ manager has developed policies and procedures to manage the fund-specific risks. Fund portfolios are reviewed on a regular basis by RBC Life Insurance Company to ensure that the existing asset mix and weightings continue to meet the current and future needs of the Funds.

6. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Funds have no externally imposed capital requirements. The relevant capital movements are disclosed in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets Attributable to Contractholders. To manage risks, the Funds’ Manager uses internal guidelines, maintains a governance structure that oversees each Fund’s investment activities, and monitors compliance with the Fund’s investment strategies, internal guidelines and securities regulations.

7. MANAGEMENT FEES AND INSURANCE FEES

Each Fund pays a management fee and an insurance fee for the management of the Fund and for providing the benefits under the contracts. Management and insurance fees differ by Fund and between Series and are stated as an annualized percentage of the daily fair value of the net assets of the Fund attributed to that Series.

Management fees and insurance fees are calculated and accrued at the end of each valuation date using a daily factor of the annualized management fees and insurance fee percentages. Management fees and insurance fees are reimbursed monthly to the Funds’ Manager.

8. OTHER EXPENSES ABSORBED BY THE MANAGER

Each Fund is responsible for the payment of the fees and expenses related to the operation of that Fund. Such fees and expenses, which are recorded on an accrual basis, include custodian fees, management fees, insurance fees, legal fees, audit fees, operations and administration fees, bank charges, interest, brokerage on securities transactions and all indirect taxes. As the Funds invest solely in units of the underlying mutual funds, the Funds are not subject to transaction costs pertaining to the purchase, sale or redemption of units.

Management fees and other administrative expenses charged to the Funds are subject to the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) in Ontario, British Columbia, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Newfoundland and Labrador. Based on the rules and guidance issued by the Department of Finance, the effective HST rate will reflect the tax rates that are applicable in the Provinces/Territories where the Fund’s contractholders reside. Since each Fund will have contractholders in more than one Province/Territory, the blended rate will be a weighted average based on the tax rate in each Province/Territory and the value of contractholder assets. Therefore the blended rate is likely to be different for each Fund.

9. SALES AND REDEMPTIONS OF UNITS

Units of the Fund series, which are redeemable at the option of the contractholder, do not have any nominal value or par value and the number of units, which may be issued, is unlimited. Units are issued or redeemed on a daily basis at the net asset value per unit next determined after the purchase order or redemption request.

The units of the Funds are classified as financial liabilities under IAS 32 as the Funds are contractually obligated to repurchase or redeem them for cash or another financial asset.

10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

Investments recorded at fair value on the Funds’ Statements of Financial Position are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels, defined in accordance with IFRS 13 and directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with inputs to fair valuation of these assets, are as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. Quoted price for these investments are not adjusted even in situations where a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies.

Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

As at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the investments in underlying mutual fund by each of the Fund’s are classified as Level 1.

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During the period ended June 30, 2019 and year ended December 31, 2018, management fees and insurance fees were paid to RBC Life Insurance Company as disclosed in Note 7 and presented separately in the Statement of Comprehensive Income of each Fund. As at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the management fees and insurance fees payable to RBC Life Insurance Company are included in

accrued expenses in the Statement of Financial Position of each Fund.

The Manager may absorb/waive certain expenses of the Funds. The waiver may be terminated by the Manager at any time in accordance with the Information Folder. Included in Due from RBC Life Insurance Company, in the Statements of Financial Position, are balances of expenses absorbed by the Manager.

For the period ended June 30, 2019 and year ended December 31, 2018, the Funds paid administrative expenses to RBC Investor Services. For the period ended June 30, 2019 and year ended December 31, 2018, the Funds did not pay any expenses to RBC GAM.

12. REVISION TO COMPARATIVE FIGURES

Certain comparative figures on the Statements of Comprehensive Income and Statements of Cash Flow have been revised. Amounts pertaining to capital gain distributions have been reclassified from “Realized gain (loss) on sale of investments” to Distribution from underlying fund”. The impact on the “Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities” is nil.

Comparative figures on the Statements of Comprehensive Income and Statements of Cash Flow have been revised for all funds except for RBC Global Growth and Income GIF.
