Japan Will Keep Watching Impact of Strong Yen, Suzuki Says

The Japanese government will keep analyzing the sudden yen strength’s impact on the nation’s economy, the finance minister said after the yen gained sharply following major central bank decisions this week.

“The government will continue to analyze the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on the Japanese economy and people’s lives, and will respond appropriately,” Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki told reporters Friday.
