About this episode
The episode discusses the Bank of Japan's decision to keep interest rates unchanged and the implications of rising inflation and a complex policy dilemma.
The Bank of Japan has kept interest rates unchanged at 0.75%, but markets are looking at a growing split within the policy board, rising inflation forecasts, and a weaker growth outlook, all pointing to an increasingly complex policy dilemma. Stefan Angrick, Head of Japan and Frontier Economic at Moody’s Analytics shares his insights. Image Credit: Shutterstock See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
