Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Over the 1990s, Canadian businesses became more heavily dependent on financial markets as their primary source of external funding. Data display a trend towards a more market-oriented financial system. Our econometric tests suggest that this new trend started after the 1980 banking legislation amendments. The trend was considerably accentuated after the 1992 amendments. We provide a new series for the off-balance- sheet activities of Canadian banks that measures the non-interest income of banks as a credit equivalent. Despite the market-oriented trend, this series combined with our data reveal a healthy trend in banks activities: thanks to the amendments, financial institutions are simply closer to the markets. However, our data indicate that Canadian firms issue a substantial share of their bonds in the U.S. bon market. They also issue an increasing share of their stocks in the U.S. bond market. we conjecture that there is some form of incompleteness in the Canadian markets. A noticeable fraction of Canadian issuances in the U.S. involves riskier firms for which U.S. markets seem more mature.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
