Nice article titled Inflation risk and the inflation risk premium by Geert Bekaert and Xiaozheng Wang

Another interesting paper was Residential Mortgage Securitization in Canada: A Review by Adi Mordel and Nigel Stephens, which showed that the outstanding amount of Canada Mortgage Bonds at the end of 2015 was about $200-billion, whereas slightly under 50-billion of RRBs were outstanding at that time (this consultation paper also had good charts regarding liquidity).
