Abstract: Abstract A few important changes and reforms of the Japanese economic and social system occurred in the 1990s and early 2000s. The system and policy of banking supervision were changed significantly. In addition, the legal system relating to business revitalization was reformed. These were reflections of the dramatic changes in the Japanese economy itself. They affected the behaviour of both individuals and firms and also defined a business trend in the banking industry in the 2000s and afterwards. The tougher banking inspection rules after the financial crisis raised fears that bank autonomy would be shrunk and create a contraction of banking activity. While the driving forces of the respective reforms were independent, the aggregated pressures and burdens of the reforms created great difficulties for the Japanese economy.
