A chapter in Interfirm Relationships and Trade Credit in Japan, 2015, pp 1-80 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In this paper, we describe the current status of interfirm relationships in Japan with a special emphasis on the trade credit between firms. To do so, we first need to clarify what kind of firms in Japan we report on. In this section, we describe the source of our data, and how we chose the sample firms that are used for the analysis in the subsequent sections. We also explain the methodology that we use when we report our findings in the sections below.
