BOJ Likely to Raise Rates at Slightly Faster Pace -- Market Talk

0311 GMT - The Bank of Japan is expected to raise interest rates at a slightly faster pace than before, given that Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's expansive fiscal policy risks stoking inflation further, BNP Paribas economists say. They expect the BOJ to raise rates in April and keep tightening every four to five months until the policy rate reaches 2%. "Depending on future exchange-rate movements, the possibility that the next rate hike will be moved forward to March cannot be ruled out," they say in a note. USD/JPY is last at 156.87. Japanese officials have warned that the government stands ready to take action against excessive yen movements. (megumi.fujikawa@wsj.com)
