Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda said the central bank will maintain its previous monetary policy stance, noting that the situation in the Middle East is expected to remain uncertain. The central bank will closely monitor developments and their potential impact on economic activity, inflation and financial conditions.

Kazuo Uedas latest remarks suggest a more cautious stance on interest rate hikes. He had previously stated multiple times that the Bank of Japan would raise rates if the economic outlook evolves in line with expectations, but had not emphasized future uncertainties.

Pricing in the overnight index swap market shows that traders are scaling back bets on a rate hike at the Bank of Japans policy meeting on April 28. Following Uedas speech, the probability of a rate hike this month fell to 33%.

Ueda noted that escalating tensions in the Middle East have triggered volatile swings in global financial markets and a sharp rise in crude oil prices, warranting close attention to future developments. For resource-importing Japan, higher oil prices would worsen terms of trade and exert downward pressure on the economy. If supply chains are affected, production activity could be further disrupted.
