OTTAWA –\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bank of Canada will make its latest interest rate decision this morning when it also releases its updated outlook for the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The central bank raised its key interest rate a quarter of a percentage point last month to 0.50 per cent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Economists expect another rate increase today, with many predicting the Bank of Canada will raise its policy interest rate by half a percentage point to one per cent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bank of Canada makes changes to its key interest rate in an effort to control inflation with a target of two per cent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Statistics Canada, the annual pace of inflation rose to 5.7 per cent in February, up from 5.1 per cent in January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inflation figures for March are expected to be released next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
