Japan Zoominar @ UC San Diego: "Japan at an Inflection Point? The Ups and Downs of Japan's Economic and Investing Landscape" with Anne Vandenabeele
 
Wed, Feb. 21, 9:00-10:00 am JST (Tue, Feb. 20, 4:00-5:00 pm Pacific)
 

Join Anne Vandenabeele to discuss how Japan's economic challenges and policy choices over the last three decades have affected asset prices and investor interest in Japan. We will debunk the myth that the story is mostly about demographic headwinds. And with hints of change across the economy, from prices to lifetime employment and corporate governance, it's a good time to ask whether Japan is at an inflection point that will see renewed interest from investors.
