PM Resignation Announcement Impacts On Japan’s Currency Deficit

On Wednesday the Japanese currency fell to a two-week low against the dollar. The main reason behind this fall was the resign of the Japan’s Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama. The likely successor of Hatoyama said earlier that he was in favour of a weaker Yen.

Mr Hayotama took office just eight months ago by defeating the log ruling conservatives. He promised to bring a transparency in the government and bring good changes . But laden with huge expectations and his staff trapped in a political funding scandal Hayotama was not able to live-up to the huge expectations and he resigned.

The expected replacement of Hatoyama is the finance minister Naoto Kan has advocated a weaker Yen. Kan has remarked that majority of the businesses favor a Dollar/Yen rate of 95 Yen. He laid emphasis on the stability of the currency and the market should set foreign exchange levels. Experts said that Kan supports weaker Yen in order to boost the exports.

On his first day of joining the office as Finance Chief minister ,Kan said that he wanted Yen to weaken a bit more after it declined from a 14-year high. The reason was that the stronger Yen is unfavorable for exporters who have been a big reason for the recovery of Japan after the war.He also asked the Bank of Japan to make the policies to support the economy of the Forex market.

The dollar looks a safe-haven investment at the time of this political instability of the government. This instability of the government is also a cause for the weakening of Yen.

Experts also said that the weakening was not deep due to the fact that investors still want Japanese currency which was benefited from the risk aversion of Euro debt crisis.

The yen depreciated to 91,56 to the dollar at midday in London yesterday from 90,94 on Tuesday in New York.
