74 trillion yen of “buried treasure”? What to do with the Bank of Japan ETF

2024-04-28 01:22:00
The Bank of Japan has been purchasing exchange-traded funds (ETFs) as part of its large-scale easing measures. Due to a change in policy in March this year, no new purchases will be made, but the amount held is estimated to be worth 74 trillion yen in market value. The issue left behind by this unprecedented policy among central banks around the world is its exit strategy. Nowadays, ETFs are said to be a huge amount of "unreserved treasure," but not only the market but also political circles are paying close attention to how ETFs will be handled.
