Bank of Japan sees deeper economic pain, even after emergency easing
TOKYO - The coronavirus pandemic could plunge Japan into prolonged economic gloom, Bank of Japan policymakers warned as they eased monetary policy last week, with one member flagging the chance of more stimulus, a summary of their debate at the March meeting showed.
A summary of opinions expressed at last week’s rate review showed the deep concern shared among the nine-member board over the huge blow the virus outbreak could inflict on an economy, already reeling from last year’s sales tax hike. One board member said the BOJ can continue to respond flexibly to risks, such as by holding another emergency policy meeting and ramping up government bond purchases, as recession fears heighten, the summary showed.
