Direct Foreign Investment in Japan

Sueo Sekiguchi and Koji Matsuba

Japanese Economy, 1975, vol. 4, issue 1, 52-95

Abstract: Foreign investment for managerial participation is not necessarily a new phenomenon in postwar Japan. Instances of foreign direct investment were not rare in prewar Japan from the 1910s to the mid-1930s. A typical example in this connection was the prewar electrical machinery industry. Indeed, direct foreign capital investment made its contribution to the industrial progress of prewar Japan through introduction of new production and management technologies, even though foreign investment as a capital fund could play only a limited role in modernizing the prewar Japanese industries.
