It contains the outcome of their decision on interest rates and commentary about the economic conditions that influenced their decision. Most importantly, it discusses the economic outlook and offers clues on the outcome of future decisions.
In the past statement on July 14, BAC did not make any changes in the interest rate, but it tightened the government securities purchase rate from 3 to 2 billion Canadian dollars weekly.
At the past conference with the Bank of Canada on July 14, USD/CAD grew by 0.5%.
