Key Points
- Fixed mortgage rates in Canada may see a slight decrease due to falling five-year Government of Canada bond yields and economic concerns stemming from global trade tensions.
- The ongoing trade war and economic uncertainty could prompt a more accommodative monetary policy from the Bank of Canada, although significant rate cuts are unlikely without further economic weakening and controlled inflation.
- Mortgage brokers have a crucial role in supporting new Canadians, offering guidance and education to help them navigate Canada's financial system and make informed decisions.
