Where Bank of Canada rate announcement lands in the trading day

15 minutes into the U.S. equity session, so it lands in live trading rather than ahead of it.

What it measures

Bank of Canada rate announcement, in one paragraph

The Bank of Canada rate announcement states the target for the overnight rate, the policy rate that anchors the cost of short-term Canadian-dollar borrowing. The Bank publishes eight fixed announcement dates each year and releases the decision at 09:45 Eastern Time.

What JMM reads first

The decision is only half the event. Read the statement for what changed in the Bank’s inflation and growth balance, then compare that language with the prior statement. Four meetings also carry a Monetary Policy Report, and those are the dates when the forecast path matters as much as the rate itself.

The series this release carries

JMM's latest reading of this series covers the August 2026 reference period, read straight from the Bank of Canada public API on the collection run below. The reference period is the month a value describes, not the day it was published, and the two are never the same month for a series like this one.
