Peter, I notice it is possible to graph & compare rate change history up to 5 FIs. Does it ever occur to you to add BoC rates on the chart? That way I can pick BoC on my graphs.

Good idea. I've thought about it quite a bit and have done it manually. I just need to actually do it. It would be easy to maintain, but just one more thing.

If I hadn't read this post, I would have not known this feature existed. (its under Resources at the top)

Very neat feature! Just another reason this site rocks!

I've added the Bank of Canada policy rates going back to 2010, so now you can compare savings account interest rates against that.

For example, here's Motive Financial vs the Bank of Canada's key interest rate: https://www.highinterestsavings.ca/savings-account-interest-rate-graph/?institution_ids%5B%5D=motive-financial&institution_ids%5B%5D=bank-of-canada

Thanks Peter.

Looking at the graph, I think there is a 2nd cross-over ahead between BoC and FIs. Then it will be relatively flat again like old times.
