Sanae Takaichi assumed office in October 2025 as Japan’s first female prime minister and secured a historic LDP supermajority in the February 2026 snap election. As of September 2026, she remains in office, recently completing a cabinet reshuffle that retained key ministers including those handling defense, foreign affairs, and finance while incorporating a Japan Innovation Party member. Official actions include responses to North Korean missile activity, diplomatic engagements ahead of a U.S.-China summit, and management of domestic recovery efforts following natural disasters. These developments, combined with the LDP’s commanding parliamentary position and absence of immediate leadership challenges or no-confidence triggers, underpin trader consensus that she will complete the calendar year in the role.
