TOKYO, Oct 1 (Reuters) - Bank of Japan policymakers discussed the need to be cautious about raising interest rates in the near term with some voicing concern over unstable financial markets and uncertainty over the U.S. economic outlook, a summary of opinions at their September meeting showed on Tuesday.
"Overseas economic uncertainties have heightened. We should scrutinise overseas and market developments closely for the time being. In terms of further adjustment to our monetary support, it should be done when such uncertainties are reduced," one member was quoted as saying.
