The Monthly Economic Report for April assesses the current state of the Japanese economy, stating that "The Japanese economy is showing movements of picking up recently, while weakness can be seen in some areas."

On prospects for the economy, it states "Recovery is expected to resume gradually supported by the improvement of confidence, the improvement of export conditions and the effect of the policy package and monetary policy. However, slowing down of overseas economies is still a downside risk of the Japanese economy. Also, attention should be paid to the employment and income situations over the future."
