CanadianMoneyData: Continuity Adjusted Component Data for Canadian Monetary Aggregates

Description

Components of the Canadian Monetary aggregates.

Usage

format

The objects are time series.

source

Components are from the Bank of Canada. Population and consumer price index (CPI) data from Statistics Canada are used to calculate realM1 and percapitaM1.

Details

Several data objects are loaded, as listed in the table below. The first usage loads the version most recently added to the package and other usage loads data as of a given data. (At present the two are the same.) These data are the components of the Canadian Monetary aggregates. They have been "continuity adjusted" so that take-overs and mergers do not result in breaks in the series. This involves re-arranging historical data so that it reflects the current structure of the industry. Trust company deposits are not included in some Canadian monetary aggregates so, if a bank takes over a trust company, the historical data for the trust company must be added to the bank's historical data to eliminate a break in the series. The series start at various dates but continuity adjustments prior to 1981 are not complete. More details about the adjustment are provided in Kottaras (2003).

The following table indicates how these components are added for the Bank of Canada monetary aggregates. The column on the left indicates how they are combined to form components for the dfa approach (Gilbert and Pichette, 2003). ccccccccccc{ netM1= grossM1 totalM1 M1+ M1++ M2 M2+ M2++ M3 comp.

CUadj changes an estimate of NonbankNonCheq/NonbankTerm split prior to April 1996. This only affects M1++.

The components in this database are not seasonally adjusted, but the corresponding Bank of Canada/Statistics Cananada B numbers for the seasonally adjusted aggregates are as follows:
