  Financial System Review Summary—2019

  

  Stephen S. Poloz, Carolyn A. Wilkins, Timothy Lane, Lawrence L. Schembri, Lynn Patterson, Paul Beaudry

  In our Financial System Review, we identify the main vulnerabilities and risks to financial stability in Canada and explain how they have evolved over the past year. This issue reflects the Bank’s judgment that the vulnerabilities associated with high household debt and imbalances in the housing market have declined modestly but remain significant. The Financial System Review is a product of the Governing Council of the Bank of Canada: Stephen S. Poloz, Carolyn A. Wilkins, Timothy Lane, Lawrence Schembri, Lynn Patterson and Paul Beaudry.
