JAPAN - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
In the years following World War II, government-industry
cooperation, a strong work ethic, mastery of high technology, and a comparatively
small defense allocation (1% of GDP) helped Japan develop a technologically
advanced economy. Two notable characteristics of the post-war economy were the
close interlocking structures of manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors,
known as keiretsu, and the guarantee of lifetime employment for a substantial
portion of the urban labor force. Both features are now eroding under the dual
pressures of global competition and domestic demographic change. Since the
complete shutdown of Japan’s nuclear reactors after the earthquake and tsunami
disaster in 2011, Japan's industrial sector has become heavily dependent on
imported raw materials and fuels. A small agricultural sector is highly
subsidized and protected, with crop yields among the highest in the world.
While self-sufficient in rice production, Japan imports about 60% of its food
on a caloric basis. For three decades, overall real economic growth had been
spectacular - a 10% average in the 1960s, a 5% average in the 1970s, and a 4%
average in the 1980s. Growth slowed markedly in the 1990s, averaging just 1.7%,
largely because of the after effects of inefficient investment and an asset
price bubble in the late 1980s that required a protracted period of time for
firms to reduce excess debt, capital, and labor. Modest economic growth
continued after 2000, but the economy has fallen into recession four times
since 2008. A sharp downturn in business investment and global demand for
Japan's exports in late 2008 pushed Japan into recession. Government stimulus
spending helped the economy recover in late 2009 and 2010, but the economy
contracted again in 2011 as the massive 9.0 magnitude earthquake and the
ensuing tsunami in March disrupted manufacturing. A sales tax increase caused
the economy to contract during the 2nd and 3rd quarters of 2014. The economy
has largely recovered in the three years since the disaster, but reconstruction
in the Tohoku region has been uneven due to labor shortages. Prime Minister
Shinzo ABE has declared the economy his government's top priority; he has
overturned his predecessor's plan to permanently close nuclear power plants and
is pursuing an economic revitalization agenda of fiscal stimulus, monetary
easing, and structural reform. Japan joined the Trans Pacific Partnership
negotiations in 2013, a pact that would open Japan's economy to increased
foreign competition and create new export opportunities for Japanese
businesses. Measured on a purchasing power parity (PPP) basis that adjusts for
price differences, Japan in 2014 stood as the fourth-largest economy in the
world after second-place China, which surpassed Japan in 2001, and third-place
India, which edged out Japan in 2012. The government will continue a
longstanding debate on restructuring the economy and reining in Japan's huge
government debt, which amounts to more than 240% of GDP. To help raise
government revenue and reduce public debt, Japan decided in 2013 to gradually
increase the consumption tax to a total of 10% by 2015, although the government
in 2014 decided to postpone the final phase of the increase until 2017 to give
the economy time to recover from the 2014 increase. Japan is making progress on
ending deflation due to a weaker yen and higher energy costs, but reliance on
exports to drive growth and an aging, shrinking population pose other major
long-term challenges for the economy.
