Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi stated that the government will steadily reduce the debt-to-GDP ratio, restore fiscal sustainability, maintain market confidence, and clarify specific fiscal targets. The policy, which fully considers fiscal discipline, defines the Takaichi Cabinet's "responsible and proactive fiscal policy," and the government aims to pass key legislation, including tax reform for fiscal year 2026/27, as early as possible before the end of this fiscal year. The government will begin launching investment roadmaps for 17 strategic areas next month.
