But reforms have unleashed the world's second largest economy. Andrew H. Shipley's The Japanese Money Tree challenges the stale conventional wisdom regarding Japan's grim prospects, and highlights how foreign investors are making the most of exciting opportunities in Tokyo. He also reveals how readers themselves, whether institutional money managers or individual investors, can profit from Japan's economic rebirth. The Japanese Money Tree reflects Shipley's 15 years "on the ground" in Japan, sharing actual experiences of foreign investors operating there. Shipley uncovers immense intellectual property value hidden "off the books" in Japanese firms, and explores enormous private equity and hedge fund opportunities emerging in Japan. You'll find new insights into Japan's trading relationships with China, its demographic realities, its new real estate boom, and much more. Throughout, Shipley offers fresh research and innovative strategies-all brought together in today's most insightful and compellingly readable guide to investing in Japan.

Back Cover "Andrew Shipley has written an enlightening, insightful and extremely readable book on how the investment and new finance opportunities of post-bubble, post-deflation Japan are being pursued. This book is "must" reading for any student, practitioner, or professional money manager interested in contemporary Japan." -Allen Sinai, Chief Global Economist, Strategist & President, Decision Economics, Inc. "Japan's stock market is in the midst of a huge transition from cheap, cash-rich companies to growth stocks with unrecognized assets (patents etc). This book clearly sets out what's at stake." -Leslie Norton, Barron's "It's hard to find anything more insightful or a better update on what's been happening in Japan than The Japanese Money Tree. Shipley punctuates his insights with a lot of interesting, authoritative statements from key players. I highly recommend this book especially to the non-specialist reader who wonders 'what might I be missing about Japan?'" -Frank Jennings, portfolio manager of the Global Opportunities Fund at Oppenheimer Funds "Andrew Shipley provides a highly readable account of the new Japan that is finally emerging from a "lost decade" of stagnation, deflation, banking failure, and other problems. Rather than dwelling on faceless statistics, he brings us interviews and stories from the front lines of the economy, where companies and entrepreneurs-both Japanese and foreign-are busily engaged in activities that would have been difficult or impossible only a decade ago. While he provides notes of caution when due, this is a tale of exciting new business opportunities that Americans should learn about." -Edward J. Lincoln, Director, Center for Japan-U.S. Business and Economic Studies, Stern School of Business, New York University "Andrew Shipley has all the tools to assess where and how to make money in Japan's often opaque economy. Part analyst, part financial advisor, part historian, he unravels the complex relationships that have often confounded foreign investors yet hold promise for those willing to focus on Japan. His analysis is born out of experience as a leading economist in Japan, where he worked hard to make connections that others failed to see. The Japanese Money Tree is for anyone looking to tap Japan's ample resources." -Ken Belson, The New York Times (formerly in Japan) CONTENTS Introduction and Executive Summary xv Chapter 1 From ultimate capital destruction machine to the best value in the world "Japan"" returns to favor among global investors 1" Chapter 2 Intellectual property wars "Investors to increasingly focus on the hidden strengths of Japanese firms 25" Chapter 3 Cultural arbitrage "Foreign hedge funds pursue opportunities in Japan 57" Chapter 4 The future of Japanese management "Private equity firms lead Japanese restructuring efforts 85" Chapter 5 Barbarians at the Genkan "Japan""'s fledgling M & A market yet to internationalize 107" Chapter 6 The Manhattan of Asia "Tokyo"" experiences stunning urban renaissance 133" Chapter 7 Birthrates and Bushido "Market watchers see surprising opportunities in upcoming demographic shifts 163" Chapter 8 The Chinese paradox "Japanese firms face conundrum in crucial Chinese market 197" Chapter 9 High-speed capitalism "Structural reforms lead to stronger firms, more investment opportunities 219" Index "247" Japan is back.

Download or read book Japan s Quest for Growth written by Mr.Murtaza H. Syed and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As labor input in Japan shrinks with population aging, capital accumulation and productivity gains will drive growth over the medium-term. At the same time, a changing global landscape calls for a shift in export-oriented investment toward new markets and a new generation of products, as well as increased investment by domestically-oriented firms. What policies could be adopted to help firms adjust to the imperatives of the post-crisis global economy and boost medium-term growth? Using disaggregated data, this paper investigates the determinants of investment and R&D spending by Japanese firms. The results suggest that policies could usefully focus on four areas. First, raising the return on investment, including through reforms to the tax code. Second, decreasing uncertainty through improved risk management by firms and by bolstering the business climate. Third, improving SME access to finance, notably by encouraging venture capital investment in innovative areas and more risk-based lending. And fourth, reducing excess leverage and supporting corporate restructuring to enable new investments to flourish.
