According to Golden Jubilee Data, Goldman Sachs economist Akira Otani stated that the Bank of Japan is likely to raise interest rates again in January 2027, but there is high uncertainty about the timing of future rate hikes. Akira Otani pointed out that due to the potential inflation rate approaching 2%, even small changes such as a slight depreciation of the yen may increase the risk of inflation exceeding 2%, and the probability distribution of the next interest rate hike tends to be earlier. Akira Otani added that the actual timing of interest rate hikes will be influenced by the progress of communication with the government.
