Japan’s GPIF May Sell $62 Billion of Treasuries, Santander Says

  • Japan's GPIF may sell up to $62 billion of US Treasuries due to a potential shift towards domestic debt, driven by rising Japanese yields and a weakening yen.
  • Analysts at Santander suggest the GPIF has flexibility within its current asset allocation policy to reduce foreign bond holdings without a formal review.
  • This potential divestment highlights a broader shift in Japanese investment strategy, moving away from overseas markets towards domestic assets as interest rates rise.
