OTTAWA (Reuters) -Bank of Canada's Senior Deputy Governor said on Thursday that the central bank will be reducing its workforce by around 230 people as part of a drive to reduce expenses.?

"We will be reducing our overall expenses by 15%, and part of that will be a reduction in workforce," Carolyn Rogers told a senate committee during a testimony.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
