Japan has what it takes to be a global champion economy, admired not just for sociopolitical stability but also for her corporate competitive power, innovation potential, domestic markets opportunity, and pragmatic multi-stakeholder governance. Structurally, the economic drags of the previous generation—debt, deflation, demoralization, and demographics—are poised to turn and become an increasingly powerful engine for a new growth dynamics. Cyclically, the 2020–21 Covid depression may actually turn out to be a catalyst for long-overdue behavioral change inside corporations. Too good to be true?
In this virtual event, presented by WisdomTree Investments Senior Adviser Jesper Koll, you will learn:
· Where exactly the growth opportunities can be found
· What drives these opportunities
· How your business can engage and profit from the new up cycle
· What internal and external forces could derail it
· How Suganomics is unleashing both public and private sector “animal spirits”
Despite difficulties, 2021–22 may well mark the start of a new Japanese golden age.
