Japan’s Finance Minister Katayama said some regional banks are concerned about money shifting into retail Japanese government bonds (JGBs). The remark highlights deposit-outflow risk for smaller lenders as households gain easier access to JGB products. It matters because regional banks are core holders of JGBs and a key funding source for local economies. Watch for follow-up details on retail JGB sales trends and any policy response to support regional bank deposits.
