“There is heightened concern about the inability of developed nations to regain control over their fiscal finances, but almost all countries are in the same boat, and global investors have to park the money somewhere,” Chris Rupkey, chief financial economist at Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Ltd. in New York, said before the report.
