Adoption Costs of Financial Innovation: Evidence from Italian ATM Cards
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2017/02/staff-working-paper-2017-8/

Optimal Capital Regulation
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2017/02/staff-working-paper-2017-6/
We study constrained-efficient bank capital regulation in a model with market-imposed equity requirements. Banks hold equity buffers to insure against sudden loss of access to funding. However, in the model, banks choose to only partially self-insure because equity is privately costly.

Canadian Bank Notes and Dominion Notes: Lessons for Digital Currencies
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2017/02/staff-working-paper-2017-5/
This paper studies the period in Canada when both private bank notes and government-issued notes (Dominion notes) were simultaneously in circulation. Because both of these notes shared many of the characteristics of today's digital currencies, the experience with these notes can be used to draw lessons about how digital currencies might perform.

Price-Level Dispersion versus Inflation-Rate Dispersion: Evidence from Three Countries
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2017/02/staff-working-paper-2017-3/
Inflation can affect both the dispersion of commodity-specific price levels across locations (relative price variability, RPV) and the dispersion of inflation rates (relative inflation variability, RIV). Some menu-cost models and models of consumer search suggest that the RIV-inflation relationship could differ from the RPV-inflation relationship.
