穆迪：预计日本央行 2025 年还会有两次加息

Moody's analyst Stefan Angrick stated that although the Bank of Japan did not take action earlier, it seems determined to tighten its policy further.

Moody's analysis predicts that the Bank of Japan will have two more rate hikes in 2025. If wages and economic growth exceed expectations, the yen weakens again, or overseas central banks raise interest rates, the Bank of Japan may intensify its tightening efforts
