The Bank of Japan (BOJ) is on track to end its COVID-19-relief funding scheme but the central bank is likely to maintain ultra-low rates at the September 21-22 policy meeting, Reuters reports, citing three sources familiar with its thinking.
“While some firms remain under stress, corporate funding has generally improved.”
