TOKYO (Reuters) – Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda said on Tuesday the central bank will examine whether to continue its purchases of risky assets, as well as other stimulus means, when sustained achievement of its 2% inflation target comes into sight.
The decision on whether to unload the BOJ’s holdings of risky assets, such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs), can be made at a later date, he told parliament.
