Corporate Program

Financial experts discuss how the strength of the Japanese yen has created a challenge for Japan to recover since the earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011. Is Japan’s manufacturing base hollowing-out as a result of the exchange rate? Along with global economic stagnation, the strength of the yen has been one of the main challenges facing corporate Japan. What is the impact on Japan and other economies and what are the prospects for recovery over the medium to long term?
