Managers at the Bank of Quebec are afraid that the bank will not have enough reserves at the end of the business day to meet withdrawals tomorrow. It currently has two options to borrow money overnight. First, it could borrow money from the Bank of Canada (BOC) at a rate of 0.75%. Second, it could borrow money from other banks at a rate of 0.25%.
1. What is the overnight rate?
2. What is the bank rate?
3. What would happen to other short-term interest rates if the Bank of Canada increases its overnight rate target?
A. They should remain unchanged.
B. They would become irrelevant.
C. They would decrease.

Answer:

Bank of Quebec

1. The overnight rate is 0.25%

2. The bank rate is 0.75%

3. If the Bank of Canada increases its overnight rate target, the other short-term interest rates:

B. They would become irrelevant.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations;

Bank of Canada (BOC) rate = 0.75%

Other banks' rate = 0.25%

b) The overnight rate is the interest rate at which a Canadian depository bank lends or borrows funds with other depository institutions in the Canadian overnight market.  The central bank rate is the interest rate that the Bank of Canada charges other Canadian banks to borrow funds from it.

Answer:

1. What is the overnight rate? .25%

2. What is the bank rate? .75%

3. What would happen to other short-term interest rates if the Bank of Canada increases its overnight rate target?

It would also increase

Explanation:

Overnight rate:

If a bank needs to borrow money for the very short term, typically overnight, it has two options. First, it can borrow from other banks. This particular interest rate associated with overnight borrowing is referred to as the overnight rate. The overnight rate is not explicitly set by the BOC, but it is determined through the interaction of borrowers and lenders. In the question, the overnight rate is 0.25% . Even though the BOC does not set the overnight rate, it has a large amount of influence over it.

Bank rate:

The second option is for banks to borrow directly from the BOC at an interest rate called the bank rate. The bank rate is set by the BOC and is typically higher than the prevailing overnight rate in order to give banks incentive to borrow from each other. In the question, the discount rate is .75% .

The BOC sets a target for the overnight rate that it attempts to meet through open market operations. This target is typically met. Although households and firms are not directly affected by the overnight rate, the interest rates on other financial assets are. A low overnight rate means that banks can borrow money cheaply to meet reserve requirement. A high overnight rate means that it is expensive for banks to borrow money and the banks will pass this expense onto customers. Therefore, if the overnight rate rises, short‑term interest rates charged by banks will also increase.

Answer to part 3 is not one of the options given. However, the only correct answer would be that the the other short-term interest rates also increase.
