"In 2021, TD delivered for all of its stakeholders, advancing its strategic and operating priorities and investing in new capabilities and innovation to serve customers' changing needs. The Bank's strong performance and capital position enabled a dividend increase announcement in the fourth quarter," said Brian Levitt, TD's Board Chair. "We also made important progress on our ESG priorities, joined the UN-convened Net Zero Banking Alliance and advanced the work needed to help promote inclusive and sustainable growth for the Bank and the economies we support. In recognition of our efforts, we were named to the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index for the eighth consecutive year and are once again listed on the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index. I would like to thank our colleagues for their tremendous efforts, our customers for their trust, and our shareholders for their ongoing support."
