YOKOHAMA, Jan 14 (Reuters) - The Bank of Japan will debate whether to raise interest rates at next week's policy meeting based on its new quarterly growth and inflation forecasts, Deputy Governor Ryozo Himino said on Tuesday.
In a speech to business leaders in the city of Yokohama, Himino also said the "broad direction" of U.S. economic policy will likely become clear in President-elect Donald Trump's inaugural address next week.
