Thomas Cargill and Naoyuki Yoshino ()

FRBSF Economic Letter, 2001, issue may18

Abstract: This Economic Letter discusses the economics and politics of the PSS from both a historical and a forward-looking perspective. How Japan deals with the PSS and its associated institutions will reveal much about whether Japan is capable of developing a modern financial system that can return the economy to sustained growth and that can meet the challenge of a rapidly changing population.
