Unequal Equities: Power and Risk in Japan's Stock Market

By Robert Zielinski

Book Overview

Despite its prominence in world finance, Japan's stock market has remained an enigma to many investors. This book aims to remove the mystery, revealing how Japanese corporations have moulded the market into a cheap source of capital; why most shares of corporations are held by other corporations; what the Keiretsu - secretive stockbroking, insurance and banking cartels - really do; and how the market's 1990 collapse affected these interlocking relationships.

The key to success in Japanese Investment

I owe my success in the Japanese equity market to the author of this book. Thank you very much.

Brilliant Book on Japan

This is the best book ever written on the Japanese stock market. It explains everything that happened in the 1980s and why Japan fell to pieces. A must read.
