Bank of Japan’s Kuroda says Japan inflation expectations ‘somewhat weak’

Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda said on Saturday he would scrutinize various factors, including the effect of global market turbulence on Japan’s inflation expectations, in deciding whether additional monetary easing was necessary. Kuroda, however, did not comment on whether the BOJ would ease policy at next week’s rate review. In a panel session he attended before speaking to reporters, Kuroda said there was no limitation to the BOJ’s policy tools if it were to expand monetary stimulus.
