"Japan Inc Feels Crushing Weight of History; Modern Japan Suffers from Huge Bad Debts, Mistrust of Stock Markets and a Corporate Sector That Is All But Cut Off From Shareholder Pressure," Randall Morck (Professor, University of Alberta Business School;) Nasao Nakamura, (Professor, University of British Columbia Faculty of Commerce and Business Administration) FT7/3/03, p9. "Stock markets seem better suited than banks to financing [value-added tech and services ventures]. Japanese investors were badly burnt and are unlikely to entrust their savings to stocks again without reassurances that shareholder returns figure in management decisions. This sounds distressingly like succumbing to shareholder pressure - at long last (maybe)." http://www.ecgi.de/families/
