Advancing Access for Indigenous Communities
This expanded access reflects TD's ongoing commitment to strengthening economic participation and reducing systemic barriers that continue to impact First Nation, Inuit and Métis people.
"We know that meaningful access to banking services plays a crucial role in building financial well-being," said Doris Bear, Vice President, Indigenous Banking, TD. "By broadening our no-cost offering, we're taking another step forward in our work to support Indigenous communities' financial goals and promote reconciliation in a tangible way."
The no-monthly-fee option will be available to Indigenous Peoples from Canada, complementing TD's ongoing initiatives to provide enhanced access to advice, and increased opportunities for economic inclusion.
More Flexibility for Public Transit Users
TD is also expanding the convenience of everyday banking by exempting most public transit purchases from your transaction count on both the TD Minimum Chequing Account and the TD Every Day Chequing Account.
"Access to a basic bank account is the foundation for building financial confidence and creating opportunities," said Lina Hanna, Vice President, Everyday Banking, TD. "These enhancements are designed to make everyday banking more flexible, affordable, and responsive to the needs of Canadians."
A Commitment Aligned with National Standards
