Canada's banking regulator on Tuesday proposed changes to capital adequacy guidelines that would require lenders and mortgage insurers to hold more funds to better manage risks from a sharp rise in home loan rates.
Variable home loan rates have risen as the country's central bank has hiked benchmark interest rate to a 22-year high of 4.75% in its bid to tame inflation.
The Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions told Reuters in June that lenders should manage such risks as soon as possible. More than 20% of the mortgage portfolio of the big six Canadian banks had a repayment period of over 30 years in the first quarter, according to Desjardins analyst Royce Mendes.
