Japanese Prime Minister TAKAICHI Sanae ​said on Monday the government’s efforts to boost the country’s growth potential and ‌competitive advantage ‌will increase ​market ‌trust ⁠in ​the yen. “Exchange ⁠rates move on various factors and are set by markets. It’s ⁠hard to ‌gauge ‌the direct ​impact ‌of any ‌specific factor,” Takaichi told parliament. Takaichi made the remark, when ‌asked by an opposition lawmaker on whether ⁠the ⁠yen’s recent declines could have been caused by the administration’s reservations over the Bank of Japan’s rate-hike ​plans.
