TOKYO (Reuters) – Bank of Japan (BOJ) Governor Haruhiko Kuroda said on Tuesday the central bank must maintain ultra-loose monetary policy to support an economy that is still recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We are in close contact with the government on economic policy through various direct and indirect channels,” Kuroda told parliament.
