Economists at HSBC Global Research pointed out that the Bank of Japan may raise interest rates at its meeting in December. Frederic Neumann and Jun Takazawa, the bank's economists, said that the recent hawkish remarks by officials reflected both foreign exchange fluctuations and the improvement of economic data. Most members of the Bank of Japan's Policy Committee may have enough confidence that wages will continue to increase generally next year and will choose to raise interest rates before December and January, when Trump takes office. Japan's economy and prices are still on the normal track, and wages, consumption and service inflation have all made progress.

According to people familiar with the matter, investors urged the Bank of India to allow the state government debt to be converted into zero-coupon bonds. At a recent meeting with the Bank of India, insurance companies dominated the demand for facilities to register interest on national bonds and separate transactions of securities principal (STRIPS). Currently, the Reserve Bank of India only provides this function for federal debt. STRIPS is a popular product in the United States and other developed markets. It was first released in India in 2010, but it has little effect. However, in recent years, the demand for long-term savings products has increased and sales have surged. One of the people familiar with the matter said that allowing state bills to be converted into so-called divested bonds would give investors an additional spread of 30 to 40 basis points higher than that of similar federal securities. State bonds are illiquid and are usually sold at a higher yield than central government bonds.
