The Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) is blocking third‑party AI agents, including
Meta’s Muse, from accessing its systems, citing “unacceptable client risk.” An
internal memo sent to all staff on Tuesday said the policy follows a
comprehensive security review and aligns with the bank’s responsible AI
guidelines. RBC warned such agents could act beyond client expectations or
expose clients to legal liability. CEO Dave McKay said last week the bank had
been considering blocking Muse from accessing customer information.
