The Bank of Canada is expected to maintain its overnight target at 2.25%, a decision anticipated by forecasters and OIS markets. Recent economic data has tempered rate cut expectations, leading to a slight easing bias in the near term and a mild hiking bias later in 2026.

Expectations for steady rates
"The Bank of Canada is set to leave its overnight target unchanged at 2.25%, a decision widely expected by forecasters and OIS markets."
"We expect the BoC’s output gap estimate to narrow (to -1% to 0% of GDP) but there’s a risk it’s left unchanged."
