Course Description:
The study of money and banking is essentially the study of the role and function of monetary aggregates in the
economy, and the study of financial markets - that is, the money, bond and stock markets and their
interrelationships. The effects of the financial system on the economy are determined by the institutional
framework under which that system operates. We will look at how government institutions and regulatory
bodies influence the behavior of financial institutions, financial market participants, and thus attempt to learn
the interplay among the financial system, the monetary authority (Bank of Canada), and government economic
policies, and their effects on economic activity in the macroeconomy. This course therefore develops a keen
understanding of the financial system in Canada as well as in other major developed economies, and the very
important link between that financial system and the rest of the economy.

The university has created a new standardized form for students who are requesting special
academic consideration based on illness or injury. The form focuses upon the degree of
incapacitation that the illness or injury has upon the student’s academic functioning and the
timeline of that incapacitation, rather than on diagnosis and /or details of the problem. All students
must now have a health professional complete this new form:
