Haruhiko Kuroda, the Governor of the Bank of Japan, believes that the Japanese economy is slowly but steadily recovering from the crisis triggered by the coronavirus. During the meeting of the regulator’s members, Kuroda said that the state of the overall economy was considered as complicated but there were signs of improvements. The key positive factor lies in the resumption of economic activities. The recovery speed is rather slow but the country’s Government and the BoJ are ready to do their best to support the economy if necessary.
