I doubt it, but change of currency notes could be used as a threat to keep people away from holding on to large amounts of cash. Again, negative rates are just one more tax.If we include asset prices we are likely running negative inflation and thus interest bearing accounts/bonds are not losing but making money and paying little tax.Negative rates will help us shorten our Japan like situation.again looks like bonds should do well
