BMO Views from the North

Ben Reitzes

Booking Overview

A finance interview and roundtable focused on Canadian interest rates, fixed income markets, monetary policy, and the macroeconomy, typically featuring BMO economists, strategists, sales professionals, and traders. Relevant agency clients would be senior Canadian economists, rates strategists, fixed-income investors, or monetary-policy experts, but the recent format is centered on BMO personnel rather than outside guests, making external booking prospects very difficult and unproven.

Up in Smoke

July 23, 2026

In this episode, Adam Whitlam, head of the Toronto rates sales desk, joins me to discuss the constantly changing macro backdrop, how that impacts the outlook for the Bank of Canada and the yield curve.
