Established in 2007, the quarterly CICA/RBC Business Monitor draws on the strategic thinking and business insight of CAs in leadership positions in industry to provide a view of business trends and economic confidence across our nation. The most recent CICA/RBC Business Monitor survey conducted in Q1 2009 found that optimism regarding the economy continues to be low, and that corporate profits and revenue are estimated to decline.
The webinar will provide a brief overview of the Q1 2009 CICA/RBC Business Monitor findings. Following this RBC Assistant Chief Economist Dawn Desjardins will explain RBC Economics' current forecast for the Canadian economy. Specific elements of Dawn's presentation will include projections of how the four following areas will impact the Canadian economy:
- The cost of capital for Canadian business
- Commodity prices
- The Canadian housing market
- The Canadian financial markets and the U.S. economy
