Bank of Japan Warns of AI Market Risks, Cybersecurity Threats, and Real Estate Concerns
The Bank of Japan's semi-annual Financial System Report warns that risks from an AI-driven market correction, cyberattacks, and rising real estate prices could impact Japan's financial stability. It highlights vulnerabilities linked to domestic banks' lending to foreign non-bank financial institutions funding AI hyperscalers, which may trigger market shocks if profitability expectations decline. The report also notes growing cybersecurity threats and urges close monitoring of stock and property price developments amid low interest rates and recent rate hikes.
