Investing.com - Q2 earnings for all of Canada’s big six banks are expected this week, kicking off with BMO (TSX:BMO) (TSX:BMO) and BNS (TSX:BNS) tomorrow morning before the opening bell. RBC, TD (TSX:TD), and CIBC (TSX:CM) earnings are confirmed for Thursday, and National Bank of Canada (TSX:NA) (TSX:NA) closes out the season on Friday.

Canadian banks are expected to post an average 12% drop in earnings this quarter compared to Q1 2022, despite strong loan growth and considerable margin expansion from rising interest rates. Increased expenses, loan loss-reserves, and lower investment banking revenues, however, are expected to weigh on profits.
