History of the the nation's central bank- the Bank of Canada, goes back to 1935, when the bank was given responsibility for regulating credit and currency in the best interests of the economic life of the nation. The Bank of Canada does not carry out ordinary banking business, nor does it accept deposits from the general public. But it does influence the economic circumstances of businesses and individuals across the country. The Bank of Canada's primary responsibilities are set out in the Bank of Canada Act and can be grouped into four broad functions: monetary policy | bank notes | central banking services | debt management. The Bank of Canada is structured like many corporate entities: overall responsibility for business affairs rests with its Board of Directors and the Governor of the Bank is the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board.
