The accompanying chart shows the extent to which foreign currency borrowings by Canadian provincial and local governments and companies have reflected interest rate differentials in three recent periods. From 1956 to mid-1958 the proportion of total Canadian issues in foreign currencies varied directly with the extent to which long-term interest rates in Canada exceeded those in the United States. The relationship was much closer for corporate borrowing than for borrowing by provincial and municipal governments. NOTE.—Data are those shown in Table 2. A basis point Is 0.01 of 1 per cent.
