The Central Bank is expecting new mortgage rules to help ease a continued rise in household indebtedness that it says has left the country increasingly exposed to an economic shock.

The bank warned on Thursday that the still-climbing levels of debt and the growing proportion of highly indebted households in many cities amid low interest rates have lead to a larger weak spot in Canada's financial stability.
