Magyar Suzuki and the Emergence of Japanese Direct Investment in Central Europe

Gabor Bakos

Chapter 15 in Japan and the European Periphery, 1996, pp 244-253 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Japan’s presence in Central Europe was insignificant before the 1970s and was confined to commercial exchanges. After 1970, the Japanese general trading companies, the sogo shosha, established branches in the region, and were closely followed in the period up to 1989 by the lending activities of Japanese banks and the first direct investments by Japanese multinational investors. Since 1989 a third phase of involvement has witnessed the growth of direct investment in both services and manufacturing.
