The Bank of Canada says it plans to increase interest rates before it reduces the size of its government bond holdings, although its timing on the rate hike will depend on the economic recovery.

Governor Tiff Macklem says the bank is eventually heading for what it calls a reinvestment phase, where it can limit its bond-buying program to only replace maturing bonds with their proceeds.He says when the bank reaches the reinvestment phase, it expects to remain there at least until it raises its policy interest rate.

“The governing council continues to expect the economy to strengthen in the second half of 2021, although the fourth wave of COVID-19 infections and ongoing supply bottlenecks could weigh on the recovery,” said Macklem in prepared remarks to the Federation des chambres de commerce du Quebec.
