Democratic U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown made his final remarks to U.S. lawmakers on the Senate Banking Committee before leaving office next January. Brown issued the warning in a notice on December 11, part of a prepared statement for hearings before the next Congress and President-elect Trump is sworn in. He said that under Trump's nominations so far, corporate special interest groups will "exploit workers and customers at will." Brown said of Trump: "He is opening our government to the highest bidder. It is the responsibility of all of you to keep (the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau) and make it the only place where ordinary Americans can go to fight for them." He added: "The committee must be prepared for the struggles and challenges ahead... From algorithmic pricing to artificial intelligence to cryptocurrencies. All of these risks have one thing in common: they all have the potential to take money away from American workers... and channel it into the hands of corporate elites who always seem to have the upper hand." In November, Brown lost his re-election campaign to Republican Bernie Moreno. Fairshake, a political action committee funded by cryptocurrency industry players, has invested more than $40 million in Senate races to promote or help Republicans win the Senate. (Cointelegraph)

The Bank of Japan will hold a monetary policy meeting on December 18-19, and more than 50% of analysts expect the Bank of Japan to raise interest rates in January next year. Nomura Securities expects the Bank of Japan to raise interest rates by 25 basis points in December, raising the benchmark interest rate to 0.5%, mainly because the economic fundamentals and price trends are in line with expectations, and the spiral cycle of wages and prices is beginning to form. The bank said that the next monetary policy meeting should pay attention to three aspects: (1) whether to raise interest rates; (2) communication on the future direction of monetary policy; (3) the results of the monetary policy review announced on the same day. Nomura Securities said that if Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda said at the December interest rate press conference that the reason for not raising interest rates in December was not related to market uncertainties, but that the fundamentals were not strong enough, the Bank of Japan might remain unchanged again in January, because the economic data between the two interest rate meetings in December and January is expected to change little.
