    YCC is when a central bank commits itself to an unlimited amount of bond buying to pin its interest rates at a specific level. There can be a wide range of reasons this is done, but the main reasons are almost certainly QE wasn’t enough, that country is heavily indebted, and that country can’t afford to pay higher interest rates on that debt.
