September 2022 - Bank Of Canada Rate Announcement
Did you hear the news? The BoC increased the overnight lending rate by 0.75%, which is another increase for the 5th time in a row. The Prime rate is expected to increase by 0.75% to 5.45% and Variable rate mortgages will increase by 0.75%.⁠ ⁠

The Bank’s committed to price stability and will continue to do what is required to achieve a 2% inflation target. As the effects of monetary tightening work their way through the economy, the BoC will assess how much higher interest rates need to go to return inflation to its target.

The current inflation rate is measured at 7.6% decreasing from 8.1% in the previous month.⁠ ⁠ The next announcement is scheduled for October 26th and there's certainly hope that October will be more positive.⁠ ⁠
