The Bank of Japan has maintained its policy of low interest rates following a unanimous decision of the board. The board identified tackling the deflationary pressure that is bedevilling the Japanese economy as a critical challenge and is of the opinion that the Japanese economy is improving but that continued governmental support was needed to keep things on track. The board expects the economy to shrink by a further 2.5% this year, but this view is more optimistic than their earlier prediction of a 3.2% contraction.
