Quarterly Review, 1990, vol. 15, issue Win, 20-32

Abstract: Recent years have seen the emergence of a sizable literature comparing the cost of capital in the United States and Japan. This review of the literature highlights the methodological differences of previous investigations and seeks to isolate common conclusions. Emphasis is given to underlying economic and institutional factors that may contribute to cost of capital disparities.
