TORONTO – Five things to watch for in the Canadian business world in the coming week:

Bank of Canada

Bank of Canada governor Tiff Macklem and Carolyn Rogers, the senior deputy governor, will appear before the House of Commons standing committee on finance on Monday. The central bank raised its key interest rate target by half a percentage point earlier this month and warned more rate hikes are on their way as it works to bring inflation under control.
