日銀、1.5％へ利上げ必要　黒田東彦前総裁、4月実施に理解|47NEWS（よんななニュース）

This page presents an interview with former BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda. He states that the current policy rate of around 0.75% should be gradually raised, targeting a neutral rate of approximately 1.5%. Kuroda explains that financial easing is becoming unnecessary as Japan's economy is stable with inflation around 2%. He supports the BOJ's April rate hike. Regarding the Takaichi administration's fiscal stimulus policy, Kuroda questions its necessity, arguing it would merely fuel inflation in a robust economy. He also expresses caution about potential oil price spikes due to Middle East tensions.
