BOJ to delay taper due to stronger Yen - Bloomberg survey
Bank of Japan 's (BOJ) powerful stimulus will likely continue under Kuroda and the yen’s recent rise could make policy normalization even more remote, shows a Bloomberg survey of 26 economists following Abe’s nomination of Kuroda and new deputies Masayoshi Amamiya and Masazumi Wakatabe.
Further, the poll shows Wakatabe, an academic and staunch reflationist, and Amamiya, a BOJ veteran, are unlikely to have an immediate impact on the monetary policy.
