In his speech to the country’s business representatives, the head of the Japanese Central Bank, Haruhiko Kuroda, stated that the world economy is showing signs of recovery from the most difficult phase of the financial crisis. This is evidenced by the developed countries, whose economies are beginning to grow at an accelerating rate. This favorable situation may be useful for the Japanese economy. Considers Curoda.
