Bank of Canada Excepted to Lower Interest Rates

Monday, December 8th, 2008

Bank of Canada is expected to lower interest rates this Tuesday… many economists are forecasting a half-point chop to their bank rate to 1.75 per cent, the lowest since 1960.

Interbank funding spreads have narrowed by more than half since mid-October. This is making it possible for banks to pass on the central bank rate cut to customers in the form of lower prime rates.

Prime rates are the rates for loans to banks’ best corporate borrowers and are the base for lending on everything from mortgages, lines of credit, consumer loans and car loans.
