BofA raised the firm’s price target on Royal Bank of Canada (RY) to C$194 from C$190 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares.

The firm, which noted that this will likely delay a peak in the credit cycle in 2H25, added that potential for policy actions from the new Carney administration combined with cooling trade tensions with the U.S. could lift sentiment on the growth outlook.
