Japan Set to Decide on Ending the World’s Last Negative Rates
bloomberg.com/news/live-blog/2024-03-19/bank-of-japan-monetary-policy-decision
Quick Glance: Fate of BOJ's Stimulus Tools Revealed
- The Bank of Japan ended eight years of negative interest rates and other unorthodox measures to boost growth. Details on changes to the stimulating tools were disclosed.
- The negative interest rate policy was lifted, and the bank now pays a 0.1% interest rate on excess reserves to withdraw money from the economy.
- Yield curve control was dismantled, but the bank will continue to buy bonds and intervene with larger purchases if bond yields rise rapidly.
- The purchase of risky assets like ETFs and REITs was discontinued, and the commitment to maintain massive stimulus was withdrawn to reassure the market.

Quick Glance: Swiss National Bank Surprises with Rate Cut
- The Swiss National Bank cut its main interest rate by 25 basis points to 1.50%, becoming the first major central bank to ease tighter monetary policy aimed at tackling inflation.
- The franc dropped following the decision, boosting the euro to its highest level against the Swiss currency since mid-July last year, with Swiss government bond yields also falling.
- Experts like Karsten Junius and Alexander Koch highlighted the significance of the rate cut due to low inflation rates and the strong franc, with expectations for more rate cuts.
- The decision was widely perceived as a surprise, leading to speculation about further rate cuts in June and September, as inflation forecasts were substantially revised downwards.

Quick Glance: Bank of Canada Likely to Lead U.S. Fed in Rate Cuts
- The Bank of Canada is likely to move ahead of the U.S. Federal Reserve on its first rate cut, as tepid economic growth and cooling inflation are priming up conditions to ease borrowing rates sooner, economists and analysts said.
- Canada may also need deeper cuts in the current cycle, since the economy is much more sensitive to interest rates due to its household debt, which as a percentage of net disposable income is the highest among G7 countries.
- Canada is expected to cut more aggressively over a longer time frame than its neighbor.
- Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem has said that despite two back-to-back soft inflation prints, underlying price pressures in the economy still persisted and it was still too early to consider a cut.
