Investment-management

This book features practical solutions to the problems of doing business in Japan today. Some of the leading observers of Japan's legal, financial and political world contribute original perspectives on common business problems, ranging from preventing adverse legislation to clearing customs or taking security for a financial transaction. A vital supplement to the frequently dry, academic discussions of Japanese law clogging library shelves.

Most books on doing business in Japan have covered cultural issues. There are very few books that address the technical aspects of doing business in Japan as the author does in this publication.

This is only book that I've located that provides concrete guidance on: 1. Corporate Law: e.g., incorporation law, capitalization requirement 2. Labor Law: e.g., employee compensation rules, etc. 3. Taxation

If you are planning to do business Japan, please get the books on cultural differences. But you must also get this book to actually do business and accomplish tangible objectives.

I bought this book hoping to get some real information on financial planning. It turns out that this book is a collection of "lip service" ideas on financial topics.
