How Canadian Markets Work – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Most financial content is trying to sell you something. This isn't.

How Canadian Markets Work is a series about the machinery underneath Canadian

finance — how capital actually moves from people who have it to people who need

it, and who takes a cut along the way.

Each episode is about twenty minutes and covers exactly one idea. Not three. One.

Your hosts John and Jane work through it in conversation: John explains how the

structure is built, Jane asks the question you were already thinking and pushes

back when something doesn't add up.

Across the series we cover how markets are organized, who regulates them and

why, the economy behind the prices, bonds and how they're really priced, equities

and how companies raise money, derivatives, reading a company's financial

statements, mutual funds and ETFs and what they cost you, and how it all comes

together in a portfolio.

It's built for anyone who wants to understand the system rather than get tips

about it — people starting to invest, people working in or moving into the

industry, and people studying for Canadian financial licensing exams who want

the concepts explained out loud rather than read off a page.

Everything is grounded in how things work in Canada specifically, with current

sources. Where a rule or an institution has changed recently, we say so.

New episodes every week.
