[TOKYO] Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda said on Thursday that the central bank was dealing with the coronavirus's impact on the economy and that he was ready to respond with further steps without hesitation.
After meeting with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, Mr Kuroda told reporters that the two discussed the global economy and financial markets, which he described as "fluctuating wildly."
