Japan's economy is starting to recover moderately, induced by improvement in overseas economic conditions. Exports and production have been increasing mainly against a backdrop of high growth in emerging economies. In these circumstances, business fixed investment is showing signs of picking up. Private consumption, notably durable goods consumption, is picking up partly due to policy measures. Public investment is declining. Meanwhile, financial conditions, with some lingering severity, have continued to show signs of easing. The CPI (excluding fresh food) is declining on a year-on-year basis due to the substantial slack in the economy as a whole, but the moderating trend in the pace of decline has continued.

In this process, the Bank, in coordination with other central banks, examined the feasibility of accepting the so-called cross-border collateral and decided today to accept bonds issued by the governments of the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and France as eligible collateral (see "Collateral Guidelines on Eligible Foreign Bonds"). |

Fund raising in financial markets for funds over the fiscal year-end has mostly been completed, but it is likely that the markets will remain under stress in the new fiscal year given the severe financial and economic conditions described below. In light of this situation, the Bank judged that continued provision of substantial liquidity is required to ensure stability in financial markets. To put this into action, the Bank decided to further utilize its long-term funds-supplying operations by increasing its outright purchases of Japanese government bonds (JGBs), thereby facilitating smooth money market operations. |

Economic activity has been increasingly sluggish due to the effects of earlier increases in energy and materials prices and the decrease in exports, and this situation will likely persist over the next several quarters. The CPI inflation rate (excluding fresh food), currently around 2.5 percent, is expected to moderate reflecting the declines in the prices of petroleum products and stabilization in the prices of food. In the longer run, the economy is most likely to return onto a sustainable growth path with price stability. However, the outlook remains highly uncertain and given the slowdown in overseas economies and the turmoil in global financial markets, it will likely take some time for the necessary conditions for Japan's economic recovery to be satisfied. |

Economic growth has been sluggish due to the effects of earlier increases in energy and materials prices and weaker growth in exports, and it will likely remain sluggish for the time being as a slowdown in overseas economies becomes more evident. Although there are substantial uncertainties, the economy, in the longer run, is expected to return gradually onto a moderate growth path as the effects of earlier increases in energy and materials prices abate and overseas economies move out of their deceleration phase. The CPI inflation rate (excluding fresh food) is currently around 2.5 percent, its highest since the first half of the 1990s, due to increased prices of energy and food. It is expected to remain at around this level over the coming months but to moderate gradually thereafter. Thus, in the longer run, the economy is likely to return onto a sustainable growth path with price stability. |
