TOKYO (MNI) – The Bank of Japan is suspending publication of the
March 2011 Financial System Report, due to the need for further analysis
of the effects of the March 11 earthquake.

In a statement released on its website, the BOJ said publication
was delayed “due to the need for further analysis of the effects of the
2011 Tohoku-Pacific Ocean Earthquake.”

The next issue of the Financial System Report, which is normally
published every March and September, will be released in the Autumn of
2011, the statement said.
