Bank of Canada Maintains Benchmark Rate – August 2018



The Bank of Canada announced today that it is keeping the overnight rate unchanged as they monitor the evolution of NAFTA negotiations and the outlook for inflation.

Household debt levels are improving, the housing market is stabilizing, and business investment and exports are “growing solidly”. The Bank noted that higher rates will be warranted but they “will continue to take a gradual approach.” The next rate-setting day is October 24th.

Get in touch if you have questions about your mortgage plan, or if you need a new mortgage, are renewing, or are looking to refinance for debt consolidation, renovations or other large expenditures. It’s very important to work with an experienced professional who knows the right questions to ask to assess your situation and provide the direction you need to achieve your homeownership goals and save money over the long term. Good advice early saves time and stress!

We regularly receive short-term rate promotions that are not posted online, which means our rates change frequently. Please contact us for these unpublished rate specials.
