Bank of Canada set for interest rate decision as tariff uncertainty persists
- The Bank of Canada will announce its interest rate decision on June 4, 2025, in Ottawa amid ongoing U.S. Trade uncertainty.
- The central bank held its policy rate at 2.75 percent in April, waiting for clearer impacts from U.S. Tariffs and economic data.
- Economists and polls from LSEG Data & Analytics expect the rate to remain unchanged due to mixed signals from inflation cooling and rising core pressures.
- Annual inflation fell to 1.7 percent in April mainly due to removing the consumer carbon price, but core inflation increased and first-quarter GDP exceeded expectations at 2.2 percent.
- Analysts predict the Bank of Canada may cut rates later in 2025 as economic risks persist, but officials remain cautious amid data uncertainty and trade tensions.
