I've never kept track of Hubert's rate increases. Is there any pattern to them in relation to BOC increases? eg. do they take a few weeks to raise rates. I'm disappointed there hasn't been a rate increase yet.

I am of the opinion... banks and credit unions, only increase their savings and gic rates when they are in need of cash. They are under no obligation to raise their rates. PROFIT$ is the name of their game.

Hubert is not usually first off the mark with increases following BoC.
I would give them a few weeks, even months.
