Japan

Paper Summary:

This paper assesses some of the major risks and opportunities associated with doing business in modern Japan. Five categories are examined: social/cultural, political/legal, demographics, economics, and technology/infrastructure. For each of these categories, risks and opportunities are assessed according to three subfields: business investment, business development, and business operations.

From the Paper:

"Social/Cultural Business investment risks in Japan in this category include dealing with longstanding corporate ties among themselves and with the government (Japan: Country finance, 2005). These traditional and firm ties will make it more difficult for new investors, especially from foreign markets, to find a strong foothold in the Japanese market. There are potential opportunities for investment, however. A new breed of risk-taking investors is emerging in Japan, in the face of culturally conservative investing practices (Japan: Country finance, 2005)."
