Product Description
Based on bank and official archives, this book focuses on Japan’s financial activities abroad – in particular, Japan’s borrowings. It is the story of Japan’s success: a “doubtful” borrower in the 1870s, it became respected after the Russo-Japan war. This study also highlights the mechanism of loan issues on the international capital markets. The book is intended for students of Japanese studies and business history. Suzuki’s other books include “Debt Problems and the South Sea Company” (1986).
