China, Japan and Korea governors review economic developments
Governors of the People's Bank of China (PBOC), Bank of Japan (BOJ) and Bank of Korea (BOK) met in Bangkok on October 14, 2026. They exchanged views on recent economic and financial developments at their fifteenth tripartite meeting.
Three governors meet in Bangkok
BOK Governor Shin Hyun Song chaired the fifteenth Tripartite Governors' Meeting in Bangkok, Thailand, on October 14, 2026.
PBOC Governor Pan Gongsheng and BOJ Governor Ueda Kazuo attended.
The governors exchanged views on recent economic and financial developments, according to the PBOC announcement published the same day.
The announcement identifies the participants, chair and location but does not describe their individual assessments or specify which economic and financial developments they discussed.
It reports no policy decision, interest rate change or joint policy commitment arising from the exchange.
China takes the next turn
The PBOC will host the sixteenth Tripartite Governors' Meeting in 2027.
The announcement gives no specific date or venue for that meeting and does not set out an agenda.
The hosting arrangement is the only future event identified in the text.
The source page also displays a last-update date of November 29, 2018, which predates both the October 14, 2026 publication date and the meeting it describes; the announcement offers no explanation for that discrepancy.
Dialogue, not a policy commitment
The announcement documents an exchange of views rather than an agreed policy response.
It gives readers no basis to compare the three governors' economic assessments.
The stated follow-up is another tripartite meeting, hosted by the PBOC in 2027.
