會議紀錄顯示,日本央行應繼續依經濟活動及物價水準升息。

By

-- 日本央行(BOJ)成員一致認為,在持續的伊朗戰爭背景下,央行應根據經濟活動和物價發展繼續調高利率。週四公佈的3月會議紀錄顯示,中東動盪導致油價飆升,加劇了通膨壓力,並對依賴燃料進口的國家的經濟造成了沉重打擊。 日本央行成員表示,每次貨幣政策會議都應考慮經濟活動和物價前景、潛在通膨以及前景風險等因素,並據此做出升息決定。 一位成員表示,在當前物價可能持續上漲的金融環境下,日本央行應避免長時間調整貨幣寬鬆。 另一位成員強調,必須將潛在通膨率控制在2%以內,並表示除非經濟前景或中小企業的薪資水平急劇惡化,否則央行必須毫不猶豫地提高利率。 3 月,日本央行理事會以 8 比 1 的投票結果決定將政策利率維持在 0.75% 左右,只有一名成員投了反對票,贊成將利率提高到 1%。
