WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda said on Wednesday that underlying inflation has been rising slowly, but it was “still taking time” for the country to achieve 2% inflation in a sustainable manner.

Ueda also told a panel at the International Monetary Fund that it was “very hard” to pin down the appropriate size of interest rate hikes from here on.
