The Bank of Japan is still on a path toward higher interest rates provided inflation and economic data continue in line with its forecasts, Governor Kazuo Ueda said in his first public remarks following a global market rout.

“If we are able to confirm a rising certainty that the economy and prices will stay in line with forecasts, there’s no change to our stance that we’ll continue to adjust the degree of easing,” Ueda said in response to questions in parliament Friday.
