The next Bank of Japan Monetary Policy Meeting will be the final meeting of 2025, scheduled for Thursday–Friday, December 18–19, 2025; the exact time has not yet been announced.

This particular meeting is exceptionally “live” because markets are widely positioned for a rate hike to around 0.75%, which would take Japan’s policy rate to its highest level in about 30 years.

One of the sponsors of the law requiring the release of the investigative files relating to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein said he’s giving the Justice Department the “benefit of the doubt” that it will make the files public by Friday — warning that there would be repercussions if it doesn’t.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act, which was signed into law last month by President Donald Trump, “calls for the release, publicly, of these files,” Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., told NBC News in an interview.

He said officials at the Justice Department have not responded to requests for information about how and when the files will be made public but noted that DOJ successfully moved to unseal grand jury records in the case, which he takes as an indication they’re trying to comply.

The law requires DOJ to make the files public by Dec. 19.
