TORONTO, Sept 6 (Reuters) - Royal Bank of Canada's RY.TO Chief Executive Dave McKay said on Wednesday he expected the Bank of Canada's decision to raise interest rates to add more than C$300 million ($245 million) to its revenues over 5 years.
"I would say a 25 basis point increase in rates should benefit our retail franchise in the first year roughly by C$100 million but increase to upwards of C$300 million by year five as it takes a while to blend into the portfolio," McKay said at the Scotiabank Financials Summit.
