Bank of Japan Raises Rates to Highest Level Since 1995
Published by WarSignal Editorial · Last updated
Bank of Japan raised its policy interest rate to the highest level since 1995, ending a prolonged period of near-zero rates.
The decision follows a series of incremental hikes that began in 2024, when rates were lifted from near‑zero levels.
The rate now stands at its highest point in nearly three decades, marking a significant shift in Japan’s monetary policy.
