Document Highlights

The Report of the Task Force on the Future of the Canadian Financial Services Sector presents a curious blend of 1990s global competitiveness concerns and 1970s government social activism.

The Report tries to balance three main objectives for the financial sector:

  • meeting global competition,
  • ensuring safety and stability in the system, and
  • meeting its social obligations (as defined by the government).

As a result, the Report’s recommendations contain something for everyone.
