Japan will continue close dialogue with markets, finance minister says on rising yields

Japanese Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama stated that the government will maintain communication with financial markets amid rising bond yields. The 10-year Japanese government bond yield surpassed the 3% threshold for the first time since 1996, driven by investor concerns over inflation, fiscal stability, and pressure on the Bank of Japan to increase interest rates. Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's expansionary fiscal policies aim to stimulate growth and support households facing higher living costs, but this approach has unsettled investors, increasing borrowing costs for Japan's massive debt burden.
