"In 2023, TD once again delivered for its stakeholders. We invested in new capabilities to strengthen the Bank and enhance the customer experience, acquired and integrated TD Cowen, and built strong foundations for future growth. The Bank's performance and capital position enabled it to pay higher dividends, initiate share repurchases under a normal course issuer bid, and return value directly to shareholders," said Alan MacGibbon, TD's Board Chair. "We continued to help advance a more sustainable and inclusive future and set a new $500 billion Sustainable and Decarbonization Finance Target, while directly contributing $157 million through the TD Ready Commitment in the communities in which we operate. Recognized for the 17th consecutive year as one of Canada's Top 100 Employers by MediaCorp Canada Inc. and certified as a Great Place to Work in Canada and the U.S, TD is an employer of choice right across our footprint. I would like to thank our colleagues for their tremendous efforts, our customers for their trust, and our shareholders for their ongoing support."
