Event Detail

Jesper Koll, one of Japan's most famous economic advisers and commentators, will provide his yearly review of the prospects for Japan's economy.

Here is a short preview, direct from Jesper: "Japan's economy has got what it takes to generate powerful growth and sustainable prosperity. Why? Because Japan's private sector — —companies and households — —have gone through a fundamental restructuring cycle. Yes, Japan's domestic demand is poised to emerge as the key driver of growth, led by both a domestic investment- and consumer cycle. Make no mistake, it is Japan's private sector that creates the bullish case, with "Abenomics" a welcome tailwind. What drives the private up-cycle? Why is Japan in a "demographic sweetspot?" How can the fiscal time-bomb be defused? Which "vested interest groups" stand in the way of prosperity? Where exactly are the investment opportunities for you and your company?"

As always, Jesper will deliver a highly thought-provoking and entertaining perspective on the year-to-come. Sign up early!
