British PM May to set out 'Road

to Brexit' in speech
London February 11
British Prime Minister
Theresa May will make two
speeches on Brexit in the
coming weeks to provide
more details setting out the
country’s path to leaving the
European Union.
Britain is hoping to seal
a transition deal next month
to smooth its exit from the
EU, and reach agreement on
a long-term trade agreement
later this year. However,
Brussels said last week a
transition deal was not a
certainty and that London
needed to clarify what it
wanted from the EU.
May’s government will
aim to address that in a series
of six speeches by the prime
minister and other senior min-
isters in the next few weeks,
which her office dubbed “The
Road to Brexit”.
”As we move along the
road to that future, we will set
out more detail so people can
see how this new relationship
will benefit communities in
every part of our country.”
May’s first speech, to be
delivered at a conference in
Munich next Saturday, will
set out the security relation-
ship Britain wants with the
EU. She will deliver another
setting out Britain’s future
partnership, although a date
for that has yet to be con-
firmed. Reuters

Japan’s government is
considering promoting Bank
of Japan’s Executive Direc-
tor Masayoshi Amamiya to
one of the bank’s two deputy
governors, Jiji news agency
reported, citing unidentified
sources.
The government has de-
cided to nominate Haruhiko
Kuroda for a rare second term
as governor of the central
bank when his current stint
expires in April, a person
briefed on the matter said on
Saturday, a sign Japan’s ultra-
loose monetary policy would
remain in place.
Kuroda’s five-year term
will expire in early April.
The five-year terms of
his two deputies, former
academic Kikuo Iwata and
career central banker Hiro-
shi Nakaso, will also end on
March 19.
The Mainichi newspaper
also reported on Sunday that
Amamiya is a leading can-
didate for a deputy governor
to replace Nakaso after Jiji’s
report on Saturday.
Amamiya oversees the
BOJ’s monetary policy draft-
ing and is known for master-
minding most of the bank’s
innovative policy meas-
ures— including its huge
asset-buying programme and
yield curve control.
