What is a Weak Yen?

A weak yen refers to the decreased value of the Japanese yen in comparison with other 💱 currencies. This tends to make Japanese goods and services cheaper for foreign buyers, while imports become more expensive for Japan.

Reasons 💱 Behind a Weak Yen

The value of the yen is influenced by several elements, such as interest rates, inflation, and economic 💱 growth. At present, the yen is weak due to the Bank of Japan maintaining a loose monetary policy, unlike most 💱 main economies that are tightening theirs. This gap in interest rates has led to the yen's devaluation.
