Japan's finance minister Katayama is expected to be retained in an upcoming cabinet reshuffle, local media report. Reappointment would signal policy continuity on economic management, exchange-rate oversight and budget-process reform and preserve close coordination with U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent, who has both pressed Japan to raise rates and assisted yen stabilization. Keeping Katayama should limit reshuffle-driven market volatility; replacing her could disrupt U.S.-Japan FX cooperation, add upward pressure to government bond yields and weigh on the yen amid tighter market conditions from government spending plans.
