HSBC Asset Management reports a significant increase in yields on long-dated Japanese government bonds (JGBs) as of January 2026. This surge is attributed to rising concerns regarding Japan's medium-term fiscal outlook, particularly with Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's announcement of substantial spending plans ahead of the upcoming general election.
Rising yields signal fiscal unease
"A pick-up in yields on long-dated Japanese government bonds (JGBs) in January turned into a surge last week. It follows growing nervousness over Japan’s medium-term fiscal outlook, with PM Sanae Takaichi signalling big spending plans ahead of next month’s general election."
"Japan’s government debt to GDP ratio has declined in recent years – driven by higher tax revenues and the positive impact of nominal growth outpacing interest rates on government borrowing. Low coupon JGBs issued during the era of ultra-loose monetary policy will gradually be refinanced at higher rates, pushing up debt servicing costs."
