Japan's BOJ raised rates to 0.75% on December 19, the highest in three decades, amid Countering the Financing of Terrorism measures and stable liquidity and crypto markets. The 25-basis-point hike matched expectations, signaling a slow exit from ultra-easy policy. Inflation remains strong, and Governor Haruhiko Kuroda’s press conference will focus on forward guidance, wage growth, and financial stability. Market eyes are on his stance on liquidity and crypto markets.
