TOKYO, Feb 16 (Reuters) - The Bank of Japan (BOJ) said
on Thursday that it will raise the minimum fee rate for three
on-the-run issues of 10-year Japanese government bonds (JGBs) to
1.0% "in principle" from the current 0.25% from Feb 27.
The BOJ will not necessarily conduct fixed-rate purchase
operations for consecutive days for the three issues, if their
yields in the secondary market are not expected to reach 0.5%,
it also said in a statement.
