Not super well informed on Japanese markets, but my understanding is that their bond markets are extremely dysfunctional (they even have had days where the BOJ is the only buyer on the market!) and this poses considerable financial risk in the system. This is the main factor why they keep their loose monetary policy as far as I can tell.
