The Bank of Japan is planning to review and inspect policies taken over the past decades, kicking off discussions as soon as at a two-day meeting scheduled for April 27 and 28 under newly-appointed Governor Kazuo Ueda, the Sankei newspaper reported Sunday, without attribution.

The BOJ will examine the reasons undergirding Japan’s stagnant economy so the central bank can come up with effective policies under Ueda, the report said.
