Japanese Financial System, The: From Postwar to the New Millennium
Abstract
Describes the development of the Japanese financial system, from extensive regulation and fund allocation through administrative guidance in the 1950s to the banking crisis and legal and structural reorganization in the 1990s. Special emphasis is on the processes of regulation, the inherent logic of the early postwar system, and the forces that triggered change in the 1980s. Extensive data materials are provided.
