The former premier’s death was confirmed publicly around six hours later.
While Prime Minister Fumio Kishida distanced himself from Abe’s subsidiary remark, he has continued to support the BOJ policy that first emerged under Abe.

However, economists largely argue that any impact will be limited. Some of them say the continuation of the BOJ’s stimulus stance after Abe stood down as premier in 2020 shows it was no longer dependent on his support.Japanese Stocks Pare Gains as Abe’s Shooting Spurs Uncertainty“It’s very unlikely this will open the door for the BOJ to raise rates or change its easing course to be on the same page as the Fed and the ECB,” said Shinichiro Kobayashi from Mitsubishi UFJ Research & Consulting.
