About Foreign Exchange Intervention Operations — the US dollar (sold) the Japanese yen (bought)
Foreign exchange intervention is the buying and selling of currency the Bank of Japan carries out on instruction from the Ministry of Finance to damp sharp moves in the exchange rate. This series records the date, currency pair and amount (in hundred million yen); because intervention is irregular, observations are sparse.
