Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Japan 10-year JGB yield?
The JGB yield is the annual return on a 10-year Japanese government bond. For much of the past three decades it has been the lowest long-term yield among major economies, held near zero for years under the Bank of Japan's yield curve control policy.
Why do Japanese yields matter for global markets?
Japan is one of the world's largest creditor nations, and decades of low domestic yields pushed Japanese institutions into foreign bonds, including US Treasuries. Historically, rises in JGB yields have coincided with repatriation flows and upward pressure on long-term yields elsewhere.
How often is this series updated?
This series is a monthly average of daily JGB yields, compiled in the OECD Main Economic Indicators and sourced here from FRED. This page updates with each new monthly value.
