RF shares fell 5% during pre-market hours on Friday. The stock has declined 36% since the beginning of this year.

The CEO added, “The actions we have taken over time to strengthen and diversify our business, de-risk our loan book, deploy an effective interest rate hedging program and streamline our operating model have positioned us to support our customers and communities through these challenges.”
