That bank participation 1has resulted in a general re- duction of the cost of financ- l ng such purchases. The bncie continues: "As ta the stimulation of gencral con- sumer demand the figures af Canadian advertising expendi- turc for 1968 show the exag- gerated, degree ai responsibility that has been attributed ta the banks. In ail media of pubi- clty - press, radio, television, periodicais, etc., it is estimated that total consumer - d.irected advertislng in 1968 by ail ad- vertisers ini Canada excecded $700 million. In relation ta this total, the advertising expendi- ture ai the Canadian charter- cd banks for ail consumer-or- lcnted purposes was about anc per cent. This suggests ta us that thec Importance attachcd ta this promotianal actîvity af thc banks Is out of ail propor- tion ta the facts. ". . The raie af the banks and the other provIders ai in- stairnent credit Is ta finance the purchase aof-. .-.products and services. This seems ta us, quite apart from temporary in- flatian conditions such as we are now expenlencing, ta be a perfectly valid activity. It seems obviaus that instalynent buytag is now a weil-cstabbish- cd feature of North American life, and wc sec no reason why the banks should flot, in nor- mal tixnes, actlvely participate inît. ".- . Finaliy, we have said that bank participation bas re- duced the cost af credit ta cansumers. The rates chargcd by the banks today range lie- tween 10.7 per cent and 12.0 per cent for instalment boans. Some other lenders charge rates that are bal! as much again."
