TD has many stakeholders: customers, employees, shareholders, communities, government and suppliers, among others. We value relationships with each of these groups and work hard to promote and support their diverse needs.
Operating in the best interests of all our stakeholders is a balancing act and an evolving process. That's why we actively consult and listen to stakeholders on a regular basis. We believe that open, respectful, two-way relationships are critical to TD's long-term success. And, as a company that takes pride in being a good community partner, meaningful engagement with stakeholders is a normal part of how we operate.
TD uses a variety of approaches to engage with stakeholders - one-on-one meetings, surveying, collaboration, corporate memberships and other forms of dialogue, communication and involvement. These efforts help us to identify key issues and concerns to each stakeholder group and ensure we're in touch with their evolving expectations.
