BOJ Kuroda to speak at Reuters Newsmaker event 0330-0430 GMT

TOKYO, March 24 (Reuters) - Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda will speak at a Reuters Newsmaker event in Tokyo from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. (0330-0430 GMT) on Friday, the central bank said.

Kuroda will deliver a speech, followed by a Q&A session.

Six months ago, the BOJ adopted a new policy framework that targets interest rates instead of the pace of money printing, which is seen as a shift to a more long-term approach in beating deflation.
