Japan's corporate services inflation hits two-year high

Original: Japan's corporate services inflation hits 2-year high

Japan's corporate services price inflation has climbed to its highest level in two years, according to a Reuters report. The rise in what companies pay for services signals persistent price pressure in the world's third-largest economy and will feed into debate over whether the Bank of Japan should raise interest rates further as it winds down decades of ultra-loose policy.

Why now: Fresh inflation data strengthens expectations that the Bank of Japan may continue normalising monetary policy.
