Attracting FDI to Japan (2000-2015): Issues and Solutions
Abstract
Japan, being the world’s biggest creditor, still remains relatively closed to foreign capital flows, particularly in the form of FDI. One of the key aspects of Prime Minister Abe Shinzo’s new economic policy is active attraction of FDI to Japanese economy. It is important not only to carry out economic reforms but to change ‘isolationistic’ mentality of the Japanese nation which has been formed due to the country’s insularity.
