La Banque procède à des prises en pension spéciales quotidiennement (à 11 h 45 et à 14 h 15) si les fonds à un jour se négocient à des taux supérieurs au taux cible. Les contrepartistes désignés sont les négociants principaux. 2, record 4, French, - prise%20en%20pension%20sp%C3%A9ciale

La Banque du Canada a choisi d'appeler «special purchase and resale agreement» l'opération par laquelle elle achète des titres pour les revendre ultérieurement. Il est toutefois d'usage sur les marchés de se placer du côté du cédant des titres pour décrire la même opération, qu'on nomme alors à juste titre un «repurchase agreement» ou «repo». Donc, un PRA est aussi appelé un «repo». 3, record 4, French, - prise%20en%20pension%20sp%C3%A9ciale
