Bank of Japan Governor Ueda spoke about the central bank’s digital currency.
Bank of Japan Governor Ueda:
-
Any decisions made by other countries on whether to issue a CBDC could offer us input on the pros and cons of issuing CBDCs in Japan.
- Overseas developments could affect Japan’s decision on whether to issue a CBDC
- I cannot offer a specific timetable at this time if Japan can make a decision on whether to issue CBDCs or not.
-
Rather than trying to issue CBDCs quickly, I would prioritize issuing CBDCs in an appropriate manner that benefits the general public.
