SUMMARY TERMS  
Issuer: Royal Bank of Canada
Underlier: The Nikkei 225 Index (Bloomberg symbol: “NKY”), the Russell 2000® Index (Bloomberg symbol: “RTY”) and the S&P 500® Index (Bloomberg symbol: “SPX”)
Stated principal amount: $1,000 per security
Pricing date: November 22, 2024
Original issue date: November 27, 2024
Final determination date: November 24, 2026
Maturity date: November 30, 2026
Early redemption: If, on any determination period end date (other than the final determination date), the closing value of each underlier is greater than or equal to its initial underlier value, the securities will be automatically redeemed for an early redemption payment on the contingent payment date immediately following that determination period end date. The securities will not be redeemed early if the closing value of any underlier is less than its initial underlier value on the related determination period end date. No further payments will be made on the securities after they have been redeemed.
Early redemption payment: The early redemption payment will be an amount equal to the stated principal amount plus any contingent quarterly coupon otherwise due.
Contingent quarterly coupon:

·     If, on each scheduled trading day during any determination period, the closing value of each underlier is greater than or equal to its downside threshold value, we will pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $28.00 (2.80% of the stated principal amount, or a rate of 11.20% per annum) per security on the related contingent payment date.

·     If, on any scheduled trading day during any determination period, the closing value of any underlier is less than its downside threshold value, no contingent quarterly coupon will be made with respect to that determination period. 

Payment at maturity:

If the securities are not redeemed prior to maturity, you will receive on the maturity date a cash payment per security determined as follows:

·     If the final underlier value of the worst performing underlier is greater than or equal to its downside threshold value:

stated principal amount + any contingent quarterly coupon otherwise due 

·     If the final underlier value of the worst performing underlier is less than its downside threshold value:

stated principal amount × underlier performance factor of the worst performing underlier 

Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be less than 75% of the stated principal amount. You will lose at least 25% and possibly all of the stated principal amount if the final underlier value of the worst performing underlier is less than its downside threshold value.

Underlier performance factor: With respect to each underlier: final underlier value / initial underlier value
Downside threshold value: With respect to each underlier, 75% of its initial underlier value
Initial underlier value: With respect to each underlier, the closing value of that underlier on the pricing date
Final underlier value: With respect to each underlier, the closing value of that underlier on the final determination date
Worst performing underlier: The underlier with the lowest underlier performance factor
Determination periods: The first determination period will consist of each scheduled trading day from but excluding the pricing date to and including the first determination period end date. Each subsequent determination period will consist of each scheduled trading day from but excluding a determination period end date to and including the next following determination period end date.
Determination period end dates: Quarterly
Contingent payment dates: Quarterly
