Bank (Canadian) industry
Article Abstract:
Canadian economic growth is slowing in late 1998 and early 1999 in spite of historically low interest and inflation rates and returns on bank loans will be less, even though lending activity will be higher. New services and the diversification of capital have been the methods that Canadian banks have used to deal with industry competition, and the Canadian government has denied recent merger requests. Income-oriented investors may find some of these stocks appealing, but the industry as a whole is not timely.

Bank (Canadian) industry
Article Abstract:
The Canadian economy grew faster than other industrialized nations in the Group of 7 in 1994 and 1995. Canadian bank earnings for the same period were good due to a decline in non-performing loans and improved assets. High interest rates have lowered margins, however. Canadian banks may now offer additional services through deregulation. Investors seeking income for the next three to five years will find good values here.
