Fortunately, when Prime Minister Shinzo Abe came to power in 2013, he recognized the need for monetary expansion, making it one of the three “arrows” of his strategy – dubbed Abenomics – for economic reform and recovery. Thanks to this change in approach, Japan was able to arrest the yen’s appreciation and move toward stronger growth, without undermining the ability of the US or the UK to advance their own monetary-policy objectives.
幸运的是，2013年上台的首相安倍晋三认识到货币宽松的必要性，将其作为他的经济改革和复苏战略——即所谓的“安倍经济学”的三支“箭”之一。这一方针变化让日本得以阻止了日元的升值、迈向更强劲的增长，同时也没有妨碍美国或英国推进自身货币政策目标的能力。
