• Forecasting Risks to the Canadian Economic Outlook at a Daily Frequency

  Staff Discussion Paper 2023-19 Chinara Azizova, Bruno Feunou, James Kyeong

  This paper quantifies tail risks in the outlooks for Canadian inflation and real GDP growth by estimating their conditional distributions at a daily frequency. We show that the tail risk probabilities derived from the conditional distributions accurately reflect realized outcomes during the sample period from 2002 to 2022.
