https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2019/08/staff-analytical-note-2019-26/
Lending to business is central to economic growth because it supports investment by firms. Knowing how market participants view risk in the financial system can give the Bank of Canada information about future growth in business loans. In this note, we look at three market-based risk measures and find that sudden increases in the perception of risk in the Canadian banking system are associated with a weaker outlook for business loans and real gross domestic product.2019-08-19T10:58:40+00:00enBridging Canadian Business Lending and Market-Based Risk Measures2019-08-19Flight from Safety: How a Change to the Deposit Insurance Limit Affects Households’ Portfolio Allocation
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2019/08/staff-working-paper-2019-29/
Deposit insurance protects depositors from failing banks, thus making insured deposits risk-free. When a deposit insurance limit is increased, some deposits that previously were uninsured become insured, thereby increasing the share of risk-free assets in households’ portfolios. This increase cannot simply be undone by households, because to invest in uninsured deposits, a household must first invest in insured deposits up to the limit. This basic insight is the starting point of the analysis in this paper.2019-08-15T07:54:52+00:00enFlight from Safety: How a Change to the Deposit Insurance Limit Affects Households’ Portfolio Allocation2019-08-15Financial institutionsFinancial system regulation and policiesStaff Working Paper 2019-29https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/swp2019-29.pdfFlight from Safety: How a Change to the Deposit Insurance Limit Affects Households’ Portfolio AllocationH.
