Dr. Michael Hartnett, RBC's Chairman, President, and CEO, will ring the bell at 4:00pm Eastern time.
The honor is to celebrate RBC's first year as a publicly traded company. RBC went public as of August 10, 2005.
Dr. Hartnett commented: "We welcome this opportunity to celebrate our first year of trading on NASDAQ. This period of time has truly been transformational for the company."
