2. Grow economy via local banks

Buying fixed term corporate bonds would allow central bank to withdraw and retire money after a short/mid-term of time period. Having too much money in the market would draw complain elsewhere?

It's likely that central bank would get money back from corporates.

I heard that local banks added 1% on top of discount rate by the BoC (Bank of Canada) for their jobs, i.e. 0.75% + 1% = 1.75%. This is a dream rate for business as the rate is current set at 0.75% by BoC.

Btw, BoC could increase interest rates to 1.5% with 0.25% in each meeting. This would send a clear message to real estate gamblers that the rate would increase eventually. They have speculated that the super low rate would stay forever. This was a reason why housing market was over heated and waited to crash.

Doing QE or investing during trouble times to kick start the economy or job creation. Using QE money to buy government bonds, so government would spend to create jobs?
- Government is not good at business and isn't allowed to do so.
- Having extra cash to accumulate huge public debts would draw lots of complains, too [they had speculated countries with huge debts bankruptcy -> higher borrow rates]. It's not good to pay only interests on huge debts.
- Greece is a huge example of government bad spending.

Using QE money to buy fixed term corporate bonds should be a better option. Corporates would use low interest funds to expand business or start hiring. Corporates are better in doing business.

Central bank can't do business neither? Then central bank could pass on jobs to local banks, which are used to lending money as well as investment for buying qualified fixed term corporate bonds. Btw, central bank didn't want to lose money neither.
-> Local banks have offices in all cities. It's visible and accessible. I have no ideas where about of venture capitalists or BDC, i.e. local bank's network is preferred.
-> Central bank has to withdraw money and retire later to avoid criticism. This the fixed term of bond investment could be limited to a maximum of 5 years.

Local banks have network of branches across our country. People knew exactly where a branch office was near them. Local banks are familiar with investment in stocks, bonds, etc. This is part of their daily activity. Seriously banks are not very greedy as compared to other investors, thus their picks would be more conservative, i.e. unlikely losing money of investment. Of course, if local banks proposed to back a 10% for total investment loss would be better as a motive for banks doing a better screening.
· Local banks could propose buying either corporate bonds or preferred shares in return for investment in a company.
· Loans in this form must come with an interest rate, i.e. yearly term based on rate set by central bank or a 5-year term.

Getting loans done by a capitalists or venture capital would be slower as they don’t have many offices. Many of us didn’t know where those offices located neither.

Doing QE or lowering interest rates by central would result in lowering the exchange rate of its own currency. However super low interest rates would trigger rising housing prices and trouble time for pensioners, i.e. income investors.
· Perhaps central bank’s interest rate shouldn’t be lower than 1%.
· Local banks should offer the lowest mortgage rate of 3% for 5-year term at lowest point.

Having higher mortgage rates, but lower housing prices would be a better scenario for home buyers. Even though the monthly payment may be similar, but home owners could save money to pay off lower mortgage debts quicker due to lower house price/debt.


*September 7, 2018: By the way, it should be the responsibility or judgement of local banks to buy fixed term corporate bonds, preferred shares, or stocks during QE period to ensure that central bank would get money back after a fixed period of time, e.g. 3 years or 5 years.
