TOKYO (Reuters) -The Bank of Japan will continue raising interest rates if economic and price developments move in line with its forecasts, BOJ Deputy Governor Shinichi Uchida said on Friday.

“We will judge without any pre-conception whether our forecasts will materialise,” Uchida said in a speech to an annual meeting of Japanese credit unions.
