Japan’s finance minister Katayama said on Friday the government wants pension funds, including the Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF), to increase allocations to domestic financial assets to ensure the public directly benefits from Japan’s economic growth. Her remarks pushed the yen to a session high of 161.63 per dollar. Katayama said encouraging households and pensions to invest more in Japanese assets is a priority and that the government will implement policies to support that goal, signaling an intent to channel more household and institutional savings into domestic markets as Japan moves toward positive interest rates and gradual Bank of Japan policy normalization.
