REFILE-Japan MOF to seek record debt-servicing costs in FY2014/15 -document Aug 27th 2013, 05:06 Tue Aug 27, 2013 1:06am EDT TOKYO Aug 27 (Reuters) - Japan's Finance Ministry will request a record 25.3 trillion yen ($257 billion) in debt-servicing costs under its fiscal 2014/15 budget, up 13.7 percent from the amount set aside for this year, a document obtained by Reuters showed on Tuesday. The decision, aimed at guarding against any future rise in long-term interest rates, underscores the increasing cost Japan must pay to finance its massive public debt. The country's debt is double the size of its $5 trillion economy and is the biggest among major industrialised nations.
