Date: Tuesday, 17 June 2025
Time: 09:00 GMT, 17:00 JST
We invite you to join us for a post-Bank of Japan (BOJ) Monetary Policy Meeting analysis featuring Shunsuke Kobayashi, Chief Economist and Shoki Omori, Chief Desk Strategist for Rates & FX, both from Mizuho Securities in Tokyo. The session will be hosted by Evelyne Gomez-Liechti, from our Multi Asset Strategies team in London.
While monetary policy is largely expected to remain on its current course, we will be closely monitoring whether the BOJ raises any concerns regarding volatility at the long end of the JGB curve. We will also focus on the BOJ’s communication around the pace of reducing JGB purchases through Rinban operations. At this stage, opinions remain divided, and the BOJ is likely to avoid committing to a specific target.
Shunsuke will begin with a 15-minute overview of the implications of the BOJ’s decision for the Japanese economy. This will be followed by Shoki, who will discuss the impact on the Rates & FX markets and share trade ideas. The session will be moderated by Evelyne Gomez-Liechti from Mizuho International PLC.
