Low rates should also guarantee that rising wages will be matched by escalating inflation. This was noted in the minutes of the June meeting of the Bank of Japan, which were released on Tuesday.
Some of the nine members of the central bank's board made this observation, pointing out that price increases are becoming more ubiquitous and are changing consumers' expectations for inflation in Japan, who had previously anticipated modest acceleration in both inflation and wage growth.

The central bank thus demonstrated its intention to concentrate on assisting Japan's flimsy economic recovery.
