Bank of Canada policy rates have held steady at 2.25% since early 2026, with market-implied odds heavily favoring no change at the October 28 meeting amid contained core inflation near the 2% target and headline CPI elevated only by transitory gasoline effects. Recent July data showed annual inflation at 3.0% with core measures (CPI-trim, median) around 1.9–2.0%, while GDP growth has firmed and labor market slack is gradually absorbing, supporting the central bank’s assessment that the current stance remains appropriate. Traders price limited scope for a 25 basis point move given well-anchored expectations and the Bank’s stated willingness to look through oil-driven volatility, with the upcoming Monetary Policy Report providing the next key update on growth and inflation projections.

This market will resolve according to the change in basis points in the target for the overnight rate resulting from the October 2026 interest rate announcement of the Bank of Canada, relative to the level it was prior to this announcement.
The resolution source will be official information from the Bank of Canada, including the statement or release from its October 2026 interest rate announcement, scheduled for October 28, 2026, as listed on the official Bank of Canada calendar (https://www.bankofcanada.ca/core-functions/monetary-policy/key-interest-rate/#target-dates). This market may resolve as soon as the statement or release of the Bank of Canada resulting from its October 2026 interest rate decision with relevant data is issued.
If the specified rate is defined by an upper and lower bound, the relevant change will be the change to the upper bound.
If the specified rate is changed to a level not expressed in the displayed options, the change will be rounded according to the following guidelines. Increases or decreases of less than 25 bps will be rounded to 25 bps (e.g. an increase or decrease of 10 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 25 bps). Increases or decreases of greater than 25 bps will be rounded to the nearest 25 bps and will be rounded away from 0 in cases of equidistance (e.g., an increase or decrease of 37.5 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 50 bps). Displayed options of “Increase” or “Decrease” will include policy rate increases or decreases of any size.
If the specified announcement is postponed to a date and time before the start of the next scheduled announcement, this market will resolve based on the outcome of that postponed announcement. If the specified announcement is cancelled, or postponed such that no decision is announced by the start of the next scheduled announcement, this market will resolve to the “No Change” bracket.
