Bank Of Japan Policymakers Divided On Rate Hike Timing

A summary of opinions from the Bank of Japan's December meeting revealed a division among policymakers, with some advocating for further data analysis, while others believed the conditions were ripe for an interest rate hike.
關於日本銀行12月會議的意見總結顯示,政策制定者之間存在分歧,有些人主張進一步分析數據,而另一些人則認爲當前條件適合加息。
One member noted that despite ongoing uncertainties surrounding overseas economies, Japan's economic conditions were at a point where monetary accommodation could be adjusted. "Japan's economy is in a state where the degree of monetary accommodation can be adjusted," the member was quoted as saying in the released summary.
一位成員指出,儘管境外經濟持續存在不確定性,但日本的經濟條件已達到可以調整貨幣寬鬆政策的狀態。"日本經濟正處於可以調整貨幣寬鬆程度的狀態," 該成員在發佈的摘要中被引用如此說道。

However, another member expressed caution, suggesting that although a rate increase might be imminent, the Bank should exercise patience and closely monitor the ongoing uncertainties related to the US economy. "The Bank will likely decide to raise the policy interest rate in the near future. But at this point it is necessary to be patient and monitor the uncertainties over the U.S. economy until those uncertainties subside," the opinion read.
然而,另一位成員表示謹慎,建議儘管加息可能迫在眉睫,銀行應保持耐心,密切關注與美國經濟相關的持續不確定性。"銀行可能會在不久的將來決定提高政策利率。但在此時,有必要保持耐心,關注美國經濟的不確定性,直到這些不確定性減弱," 該意見表示。
The summary was made public on Friday.
摘要於週五公開。
