BOJ governor Kuroda moving into Q&A mode at the presser 21 Sept
- risks are high for BOJ price forecast for during FY 2017
"Expects" with high risk, so there's the waiver.
- BOJ law doesn't allow foreign bond buys. That's under jurisdiction of fin min
- doesn't think buying JGBS at JPY80trln annual pace was excessive
- JGB buying has not hit limit
- lower real interest rates have the biggest impact on boosting economy
Like they've made a real impact so far globally you mean?
- current shape of yield curve seems appropriate
- amount of JGB buying would fluctuate in future depending on formation of yield curve
- don't expect to increase or decrease JGB buying greatly
- remain committed that we won't take incremental mon pol steps
- we don't intend to fine-tune policy at every single policy meeting
Good , then we won't be holding our breath either.
Ironic really that in case of the yen the markets shows its disapproval by buying it.
