North America central-bank rate-decision calendar (2026-2027)

Scheduled policy-rate decision events of the U.S. Federal Reserve (FOMC) and the Bank of Canada, 2026-01-01 to 2027-12-31 (32 rows: 16 FOMC + 16 BoC). Transcribed 2026-09-30 from the keyless official schedule pages (Federal Reserve 'Meeting calendars and information', last updated 2026-09-16; Bank of Canada 'Policy interest rate' fixed announcement dates for 2026 and 2027). Each row carries the decision date, the meeting window (FOMC two-day meetings; BoC single-day announcements), a projection-meeting flag (FOMC SEP + Chair press conference / BoC Monetary Policy Report), the bank's published standard statement release time (Fed 14:00 ET, BoC 09:45 ET), and the FOMC minutes release date with its status (published for the five past 2026 meetings; estimated by the Fed's three-weeks-after-decision rule for later meetings — the rule reproduces all five published dates exactly). Method: official schedules transcribed into a closed bank registry; two-day meetings normalized with the decision on the end date; event_ids assigned chronologically per bank; deterministic row hashes; fail-loud duplicate and bounds gates. Caveats: event timing only — no rate forecasts, market data, or outcomes; unscheduled inter-meeting decisions are absent by construction; the 2028 FOMC calendar was only tentative and is excluded; the BoC publishes no minutes. Meeting dates are published government facts; the panel is an original factual compilation (CC-BY-4.0, commercial use allowed with attribution).
