https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2018/12/staff-analytical-note-2018-40/
The monthly data for real gross domestic product (GDP) by industry are used extensively in real time both to ground the Bank of Canada’s monitoring of economic activity and in the Bank’s nowcasting tools, making these data one of the most important high-frequency time series for Canadian nowcasting.2018-12-06T12:18:19+00:00enGDP by Industry in Real Time: Are Revisions Well Behaved?2018-12-06An Alternative Estimate of Canadian Potential Output: The Multivariate State-Space Framework
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2018/11/staff-discussion-paper-2018-14/
In this paper, we extend the state-space methodology proposed by Blagrave et al. (2015) and decompose Canadian potential output into trend labour productivity and trend labour input. As in Blagrave et al. (2015), we include output growth and inflation expectations from consensus forecasts to help refine our estimates.2018-11-23T09:53:57+00:00enAn Alternative Estimate of Canadian Potential Output: The Multivariate State-Space Framework2018-11-23Economic modelsPotential outputStaff Discussion Paper 2018-14https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/SDP2018-14.pdfAn Alternative Estimate of Canadian Potential Output: The Multivariate State-Space FrameworkLise PichetteMaria BernierMarie-Noëlle RobitailleNovember 2018CC5EE0E5The Framework for Risk Identification and Assessment
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2018/11/technical-report-113/
Risk assessment models are an important component of the Bank’s analytical tool kit for assessing the resilience of the financial system. We describe the Framework for Risk Identification and Assessment (FRIDA), a suite of models developed at the Bank of Canada to quantify the impact of financial stability risks to the broader economy and a range of financial system participants (households, businesses and banks).2018-11-13T11:51:05+00:00enThe Framework for Risk Identification and Assessment2018-11-13Economic modelsFinancial institutionsFinancial stabilityHousingTechnical Report 113https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/tr113.pdfThe Framework for Risk Identification and AssessmentCameron MacDonaldVirginie TracletNovember 2018CC3C5C6C7DD1EE0E00E2E27E3E37E4E47GG0G2G21Monetary Policy Uncertainty: A Tale of Two Tails
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2018/09/staff-working-paper-2018-50/
We document a strong asymmetry in the evolution of federal funds rate expectations and map this observed asymmetry into measures of monetary policy uncertainty. We show that periods of monetary policy tightening and easing are distinctly related to downside (policy rate is higher than expected) and upside (policy rate is lower than expected) uncertainty.2018-09-27T08:32:17+00:00enMonetary Policy Uncertainty: A Tale of Two Tails2018-09-27Business fluctuations and cyclesEconometric and statistical methodsMonetary policy and uncertaintyMonetary policy communicationsMonetary policy transmissionStaff Working Paper 2018-50https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/swp2018-50.pdfMonetary Policy Uncertainty: A Tale of Two TailsTatjana DahlhausTatevik SekhposyanSeptember 2018CC1C18C3C32EE0E02E4E43E5E52Noisy Monetary Policy
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2018/05/staff-working-paper-2018-23/
We introduce limited information in monetary policy. Agents receive signals from the central bank revealing new information (“news") about the future evolution of the policy rate before changes in the rate actually take place. However, the signal is disturbed by noise.2018-05-30T14:57:34+00:00enNoisy Monetary Policy2018-05-30Business fluctuations and cyclesEconometric and statistical methodsFinancial marketsMonetary policy implementationMonetary policy transmissionStaff Working Paper 2018-23https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/swp2018-23.pdfNoisy Monetary PolicyTatjana DahlhausLuca GambettiMay 2018CC1C18C3C32EE0E02E4E43E5E52Potential Output in Canada: 2018 Reassessment
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2018/04/staff-analytical-note-2018-10/
This note summarizes the reassessment of potential output, conducted by the Bank of Canada for the April 2018 Monetary Policy Report. Overall, the profile for potential output growth is expected to remain flat at 1.8 per cent between 2018 and 2020 and 1.9 per cent in 2021.2018-04-16T10:00:00+00:00enPotential Output in Canada: 2018 Reassessment2018-04-16
