Canadian Banks to Benefit From Interest Rate Increases, but Relative Sensitivities Differ

DBRS Morningstar expects that Canadian banks will benefit from increases in interest rates by the Bank of Canada, the U.S. Federal Reserve, as well as central banks in emerging markets. The Bank of Canada and the Federal Reserve could raise rates five or six times in 2022. Indeed, the Bank of Canada and the Federal Reserve started this process with their March rate hikes of 25 basis points (bps). Overall, higher interest rates will be earnings-positive for the banks and their asset-sensitive balance sheets, but their relative sensitivities to rising rates vary because of differences in asset and liability mixes, as well as maturity and re-pricing characteristics of their balance sheets.
