https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2023/12/staff-analytical-note-2023-17/
We assess the complex macroeconomic implications of Canada’s recent population increases. We find that newcomers significantly boost the non-inflationary, potential growth of the economy, but existing imbalances in the housing sector may be exacerbated. Greater housing supply is needed to complement the long-term economic benefits of population growth.2023-12-07T12:35:52+00:00enAssessing the effects of higher immigration on the Canadian economy and inflation2023-12-07How Far Do Canadians Need to Travel to Access Cash?
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2023/11/staff-discussion-paper-2023-28/
This paper develops a travel-based metric to measure Canadians’ access to cash from automated banking machines (ABMs) and financial institution branches. We find that, overall, access to cash remained stable between 2019 and 2022. The total number of ABMs in Canada increased by 3.7% and the total number of branches decreased by 5.2% during that period.2023-11-16T14:45:18+00:00enHow Far Do Canadians Need to Travel to Access Cash?2023-11-16Bank notesFinancial servicesRegional economic developmentsStaff Discussion Paper 2023-28https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/sdp2023-28.pdfHow Far Do Canadians Need to Travel to Access Cash?Heng ChenDaneal O’HabibHongyu XiaoNovember 2023GG2G21JJ1J15RR5R51Demographic Origins of the Decline in Labor’s Share
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2023/04/staff-working-paper-2023-20/
Declining labour market dynamism of workers results in an increasing wedge between their earnings and their marginal product as they age. This wedge and the demographic shift in the earnings shares of older workers can account for 59% of the decline in labor’s share of earnings in the United States.2023-04-13T10:49:28+00:00enDemographic Origins of the Decline in Labor’s Share2023-04-13Labour marketsProductivityStaff Working Paper 2023-20https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/swp2023-20.pdfStaff Working Paper 2023-20Andrew GloverJacob ShortApril 2023DD3D33EE2E25JJ1J3J6J62Fiscal Stimulus and Skill Accumulation over the Life Cycle
