Recommendation
Once upon a time – in the 1980s – Japan’s economy was so robust that it posed a threat to the mighty United States. Japanese competitors gutted US manufacturers, and Japanese investors snapped up trophy American properties. Then came decades of economic malaise in Japan. This intriguing report from the OECD spells out Japan’s struggles, particularly as it faces severe demographic challenges, and offers policy suggestions, such as focusing on work-life balance and urging cash-hoarding companies to invest more. getAbstract recommends this text to executives and investors seeking a cogent analysis of Japan’s problems and its prospects.
