日本财务大臣 Katayama 称与央行无分歧,工资驱动通胀临近
Japan’s Katayama sees no gap with BOJ, says wage-driven inflation is near
Japan's economy is at a tipping point toward shifting to persistent wage-driven inflation, Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama said on Wednesday, adding there were no differences between the government and the Bank of Japan. She pointed out that the current price rise is mainly driven by import costs, and tax cuts and family subsidies are aimed at easing cost of living pressure; a Reuters survey showed that most economists expect the central bank to raise interest rates to 1.50% in December.
Japan's Finance Minister stated that he had no differences with the central bank and emphasized that wage-driven inflation is approaching, which strengthened market expectations for the normalization of monetary policy. Most economists polled by Reuters expected to raise interest rates to 1.50% in December. This is echoed. For the yen, consistency in policy communication may reduce uncertainty, but attention needs to be paid to whether wage and price data can continue to verify this judgment, rather than relying solely on official statements.
她称政府与日本央行无分歧且工资驱动通胀临近,呼应了多数经济学家对12月加息至1.50%的预期,可作为日元走势的政策面参考。
