Monetary Policy of "Abenomics": Overview and Impact
The central plank of Abenomics has so far been overwhelmingly focused on the "first arrow" -- the monetary policy to re-boost the Japanese economy. The Bank of Japan's bold easing strategies have successfully induced improvements in economic sentiment and bolstered consumer spending. But as the initial enthusiasm is beginning to wane, can these reflationary policies really drag Japan out of deflation? What are the repercussions for the global economy? Experts from the US, the UK and Japan will explore these questions.
