07:10 AM EDT, 10/27/2025 (MT Newswires) -- The BoC is also expected to lower rates by 25bps for the second consecutive meeting this week, said MUFG.

The BoC is slated to release the policy statement on Wednesday at 9:45 a.m. ET.

However, there is a higher risk that the BoC may delay this week than the United States Federal Reserve, stated the bank.

Firstly, Canadian economic data releases this month have been stronger than expected, including the rebound in employment growth and pick-up in core inflation in September, pointed MUFG.

Secondly, the BoC's policy rate is already much lower than of the Fed, reducing the need for faster rate cuts, added the bank.
