73% Informative
Masato Kanda was Japan 's vice finance minister for international affairs.
Key to his role was fending off currency market speculators that could trigger turmoil.
A weak yen is good for exporters like Toyota and Sony as it makes goods cheaper for overseas buyers.
But when the yen plummeted during Mr Kanda 's time in office it increased the cost of importing essential items like food and fuel.
