Bank of Japan board member Makoto Sakurai There is plenty of room to buy more ETFs, deepen negative interest rates and increase asset purchases No need to remove BOJ's base money target or change basic policy framework at September policy review BOJ may make some technical changes to its policy tools at sept policy review BOJ may consider ways to change shape of JGB yield curve in September review as yield curve has flattened more than expected BOJ's decision on if to ease in September and beyond will depend largely on how board analyses effects of negative rates Impossible for BOJ to adopt 'helicopter money' under Japan's law BOJ buying foreign bonds isn't an option now as would be tantamount to FX intervention Strong yen pushes down prices but BOJ won't target FX rates in guiding monetary policy BOJ shouldn't ease recklessly, 

must look carefully at effects of past policy decisions BOJ should always think about developing new policy tools BOJ unlikely to change 2% inflation target, won't do anything seen as retreat from easy policy in September policy review via Reuters Those comments seem to be those of a company man, could have been Kuroda saying them.
