IMF’s Gourinchas: Too early for Bank of Japan to tighten monetary policy
International Monetary Fund (IMF) Chief Economist Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas said on Thursday, it is “too early for the Bank of Japan (BoJ) to tighten monetary policy as re-anchoring inflation expectations to its 2% target will take time.
Additional quotes
BoJ must stand ready to tighten monetary policy if inflation remains too elevated.
BoJ will likely find it very difficult to tighten monetary policy while maintaining yield curve control.
It is probably safer for BoJ to first move away from control of long-term yield, then raise short-term rate when need arises to tighten policy.
Market reaction
USD/JPY is catching a fresh bid on the above comments, trading 0.13% higher on the day at 139.52, as of writing.
