More from Bank of Japan Governor Ueda

  • There is no statistical evidence that interest rate levels have
    direct correlation with wage moves
  • Longer run, it’s
    important to heighten labour productivity to push up
    inflation-adjusted real wages
  • As for monetary
    policy, it can help raise wages via tighter labour market conditions
    by keeping real interest rates low and stimulating economy

Also, remarks from Japan finance minister Suzuki:

  • See June next year as critical timing where Japan can see
    inflation-adjusted real wages turn positive
  • We do not expect tax
    cut, which is part of scheduled economic package, to continue for
    several years
