Overall risks to financial stability are largely unchanged, but household vulnerabilities have moved higher

Media Relations Ottawa, Ontario

The Financial System Review (FSR) concludes that the overall level of risk to Canada’s financial system is largely unchanged from six months ago. While household vulnerabilities have moved higher, the ongoing economic recovery in Canada means that the overall risk remains the same. The Bank highlights three vulnerabilities in the financial system: the elevated level of household indebtedness, imbalances in some regional housing markets and the fragility of liquidity in fixed-income markets.
