46% of respondents in poll don't expect boost in pace of asset purchases - this is up from 33% last month
Tokyo
GOVERNOR Haruhiko Kuroda, who unleashed unprecedented monetary stimulus at the Bank of Japan (BOJ) in 2013 and doubled down on it last year, is done expanding his efforts, according to an increasing number of economists.
Forty-six per cent of respondents in a Nov 13-17 Bloomberg poll don't expect the BOJ to boost its current pace of asset purchases - up from 33 per cent last month. All 41 economists predicted no change at the BOJ's policy meeting ending on Thursday.
