WASHINGTON, April 12 (Reuters) - Bank of Japan Governor
Kazuo Ueda said on Wednesday the central bank must pay more
attention to the risk of failing to meet its 2% inflation target
with premature monetary tightening, rather than being behind the
curve in combating too-high price growth.
While other countries are experiencing elevated inflation,
the situation is "quite different" in Japan, Ueda said in
Japan's G7 chair briefing with Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki
in Washington.
